5 Pound Pilates Sand Balls, which are also known as Therapy Balls, Pilates Balls, Soft Weights or even Hand Weights - are compact, relatively light-weight rubber balls. They're 5 inches in diameter about the size of a softball - and are designed to be gripped by one hand. As the name implies, they are weighted with sand; there is no inflating required! Our Pilates Sand Balls are well constructed from colorful high-grade synthetic vinyl.

They offer an element of added weight and resistance to many simple exercises thereby intensifying the effectiveness of the exercise, making each movement you make more meaningful, and helping you to burn more calories too.

Sand Ball Features:

• Sand Balls are light-weight rubber balls.
• The outer coating is soft and pliable which provides a more secure and comfortable grip.
• Physical and Rehabilitation Therapists often employ Sand Balls in range-of-motion therapies, rotational exercises, and strength and resistance movements.
• Our Sand Balls are extremely durable and are naturally water-proof and puncture-resistant.

By design, the outer coating of the Pilates Sand Ball is soft and pliable which provides a more secure and comfortable grip. Typically, Sand Balls or Pilates Balls are used in sets of two (much like dumbbells) gripping one in each hand. Choose the Pilates Sand Ball strength to fit your personal fitness level and the particular exercise you're undertaking. They're both affordable and compact, so why not own a pair of each size in order to complete your home gym set of tools and customize your work-out as you desire.
