Wall Balls

Why train with wall balls?

Wall balls are simple but super effective. No complicated machines, no weights to change, just you and that ball.

- You train legs, core, shoulders, and arms in one movement.
- Ideal for athletes and sportspeople who want to get faster and stronger.
- The combination of strength and cardio burns a lot of energy.
- Wall balls simulate natural movements, which helps with sports performance and daily movement.
- Perfect for home, the gym, or outdoor workouts.

Tip: Want even more power in your training? Combine wall balls with a powerbag for a complete explosive workout.

Which wall ball suits you?

Not all CrossFit wall balls are the same. Depending on your level, choose the right variant.

1. Light wall balls (2-4 kg)

Beginner? Or want to focus on speed and endurance? Then a lighter wall ball is ideal.

- Perfect for warm-ups and high-rep training
- Suitable for beginners and recovery training
- Ideal for core exercises like Russian Twists

Tip: Combine your training with plyo boxes for some extra variety.

For the average athlete, a 6 to 9 kg wall ball is perfect.

- Good for CrossFit workouts and functional training
- Offers the perfect balance between strength and speed

Best wall ball exercises for maximum impact

With a wall ball, you can do a complete workout. Examples include:

1. Wall ball shots

The classic: squat, throw the ball against the wall, catch it again, and repeat.

- Train your legs, core, and shoulders in one movement.
- Build explosive power in your whole body.
- Super effective for endurance and conditioning.

2. Wall ball slams

Grab the ball, slam it as hard as possible on the ground, and catch it again.

- Great for your core, arms, and explosiveness.
- Perfect for fighters and strength trainers.

3. Russian Twists

Sit down, hold the wall ball, and twist your torso from left to right.

- Killer for your obliques.
- Improves your core stability and balance.
- Ideal as a finisher after a tough workout.

What to look for when buying wall balls?

Want to buy wall balls that last long and feel good to train with? Pay attention to these points:

1. Weight and level

- 2-4 kg → beginners, warm-up, fast exercises.
- 6-9 kg → all-round strength training and CrossFit.
- 10-15 kg → maximum strength and heavy workouts.

2. Material

Durable vinyl or leather prevents tearing and offers grip. And soft filling prevents injuries and makes catching easier.

How to get the most out of your wall ball training?

- Use your whole body. Wall balls are not just for your arms. Use your legs and core for maximum power.
- Pay attention to your breathing. Exhale during the explosive movement to maintain control.
- Keep your technique tight. A good squat and controlled throw prevent injuries.
- Vary your training. Alternate between speed (light ball, many reps) and strength (heavy ball, low reps).

Frequently Asked Questions about wall balls

1. Are wall balls only for CrossFit?

No! Although wall balls are popular in CrossFit, they are suitable for any athlete who wants to build strength, explosiveness, and endurance. They are used in functional fitness, circuit training, and even in rehabilitation programs to improve overall physical performance. Exercises such as wall ball shots, squats, and rotational throws help strengthen the core and improve your coordination.

2. What is the best weight for a beginner?

The right starting weight depends on your strength and experience level, but generally:

- Beginners: 4-6 kg is ideal to master the technique without overloading.
- Intermediate level: 6-9 kg for athletes with some training experience.
Advanced: 9-12 kg or more for experienced athletes who want extra resistance.

Increase your weight gradually to prevent injuries and maintain correct technique.

3. Can you also use wall balls outdoors?

Yes, provided they are made of wear-resistant material. Most high-quality wall balls are designed to withstand intensive use, but make sure not to drop them on rough surfaces to limit wear. Use a sturdy wall or a concrete wall for the best result. Want to train outside? Avoid wet or muddy grounds so that the grip and structure of the ball are preserved.

4. Are wall balls better than a medicine ball?

For explosive movements and throwing exercises? Absolutely! Wall balls are specially designed to be thrown against walls and caught without bouncing too much or deforming. Medicine balls are more suitable for static exercises like Russian twists, sit-ups, and controlled strength exercises. If you focus on dynamic strength and conditioning, wall balls are the better choice.
