    5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent choice, in a comfortable size, January 9, 2009

    This review is from: Valeo Medicine Ball (Sports)
    I'm very happy with this medicine ball. It seems well made, and its deeply textured surface and medium/small size (8.5" in diameter) make it very easy to handle. When I bought this Valeo 8-pound ball, I also ordered a TKO 12-pound ball, which has some distinct differences. The TKO turned out to be much larger: at 11" in diameter, it's even bigger than a basketball, and the texturing on the TKO is not as deep.

    All in all, I'm glad I ended up with the combination of one smaller, lighter medicine ball and one bulkier, heavier medicine ball. The larger size of the TKO makes it harder to handle - which is a good thing, because it makes it more of a workout to manipulate it. For exercises like the squat press or medicine-ball curl, I prefer the larger size of the TKO ball, while for exercises more focused on range-of-motion, the smaller Valeo ball is a great tool. If you're considering a pair of these, this might be an option to explore. They both seem equally well made, despite... Read more

    4.0 out of 5 stars A nice addition to the workout set, June 8, 2007

    I've never purchased or used a medicine ball before, but in my winding and inconsistent quest to get in shape, I bought this. It operates as its own workout at this weight without being too big or bulky. It has good elasticity too, in case you're bouncing it off of something (hopefully something sturdy, due to its mass). The paint peels very easily, which is more of a nuisance than anything else. There's at least one extra layer of paint beneath it, but finding the little yellow pieces all over the place isn't all that great. It's a good product on the whole, though.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Nice Addition to My Exercise Equipment Collection, March 30, 2010
    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
    This review is from: Valeo Medicine Ball (Sports)
    This is my first medicine ball purchase. Thanks to the other positive reviewers, I decided to purchase it. I am picky when it comes to adding exercise equipment to my collection since a lot of exercise equipment out there is either poorly made or ends up not being used thus taking up space in the home. Because of this I seek quality and simplicity in my exercise equipment yet having the versatility for various exercises. I found this medicine ball to be a good fit. In the past, I have used different medicine balls in the gym occasionally as a supplement to my workout. However, these days I am training to become quicker by doing more explosive exercises. A few resources out there recommended a medicine ball for this kind of training so I bought it.

    Surface Material:
    The grip is superb due to its sticky rubber construction but I will need to see how quickly the surface fades over time. At less than $30, I think this is worth the cost if it lasts me at least 5... Read more
