Introducing our ITM Fitness Slam Ball 4kg
Our Slam Balls are expertly designed for high intensity training, featuring a non-bounce design that allows for repeated slamming on solid surfaces without bouncing back. These balls provide weight resistance through a full range of natural movements, including throwing, swinging, and rotation, making them perfect for dynamic workouts.
Filled with sand, these slam balls prevent bouncing and rolling between slams, ensuring a stable workout experience. The textured black vinyl surface offers excellent grip and durability, allowing for a secure hold during intense sessions.
Using our Slam Balls helps to increase core strength by engaging your abs, shoulders, back, arms, and legs. They also improve flexibility, balance, and reaction speed, enhancing your overall fitness performance.

Step-by-Step Guide to Training for Slam Balls and Use in Hyrox
- Choose the Right Ball Weight
Start by selecting a ball that matches or exceeds the weight you’ll use during your HYROX training
- Set the Correct Target Height
Ensure you’re throwing the ball to the correct height for you. Take the time to measure and set up the proper height.
- Engage Multiple Muscle Groups
Slam balls are a full-body exercise that engages your quads and glutes through squatting, while your triceps and delts come into play for the throwing motion. Additionally, the large number of reps you’ll need during HYROX will push your aerobic system to its limit, making wall balls a true endurance test.
- Supplementary Exercises for Wall Balls
While practicing wall balls is crucial, incorporating other movements like thrusters, overhead presses, and squats into your training can help build strength and endurance for the same muscle groups, giving you a solid foundation for improved wall ball performance
- Periodise and Progress Your Training
To build strength and stamina, structure your training with progressive sets, reps, and weights. A sample workout could be 5 sets of 20 unbroken reps with the heaviest ball you can manage, taking a 2-minute rest between sets. Gradually increase the difficulty over time by adding reps, and sets, or reducing rest periods.
By following this step-by-step guide, you will build the strength, endurance, and technique needed to excel in wall balls and perform at your best during HYROX training.
