Overview

The Fuel Pureformance medicine ball is a 12 pound, non-bouncing ball built with synthetic leatherette and heavy duty stitching, sized close to a men's basketball rather than an oversized wall ball.

Medicine balls fail predictably at the seams under repeated slams, so stitching quality is the real question with any of these.

  • 12 lb non-bouncing fill
  • Synthetic leatherette shell
  • Heavy duty stitching
  • Basketball-sized profile

Who it's for

Works for slam ball training, wall tosses, Russian twists, and general core work where a non-bouncing, fixed weight is what you want. Less suited to anyone who specifically wants a firm, dense fill, since the material has more give than some competing brands.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Fuel Pureformance medicine ball bounce?

No, it is built not to bounce so it can be dropped or slammed without rebounding back at the user.

How durable is the stitching on repeated slams?

One reviewer reported the stitching held up to about a year of weekly garage gym slam use, with only light wear starting to show at the seams.
