Description
In brief — Bodytone 5 kg medicine ball for functional training circuits: weight 5 kg, brand Bodytone, distributed by Light In Fitness, price 68.00 € excl. VAT.
The Bodytone 5 kg medicine ball is the reference load for functional circuits in professional gyms and boxes: powerful rotations, weighted passes and cross training sequences. It is the weight most instructors settle on for a mixed group, heavy enough to change the movement and light enough to keep the speed of the exercise.
A medicine ball is the tool for controlled loaded work: rotations, passes, dynamic core bracing and paired exercises. It differs from a slam ball, which is built to be thrown at full power into the floor, and from a wall ball, which is larger and designed for throws to a target. The compact format of the medicine ball is what suits close range and rotational work, where a bulky ball gets in the way of the movement.
In a complete inventory this load sits between the 4 kg and the 6 kg steps, the latter supplied with a handle. Balls are sold individually, and a full set is quoted per project.

Equipping a functional area
Functional areas fail when the load steps are too far apart. A rack holding 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 kg lets an instructor move a whole class up or down one step without changing the exercise, which is what keeps a circuit running to time.
Store medicine balls on a dedicated rack rather than on the floor. Beyond the obvious question of circulation, it keeps the balls out of the way of the rubber flooring where slam balls are used, and it makes the inventory visible at the start of a class.
Frequently asked questions
Can this ball be slammed into the floor?
No. A medicine ball is not designed for full power floor impacts. Use a slam ball for that, and a wall ball for throws to a target.
Which weights should a professional facility hold?
Several consecutive steps rather than a few distant ones. The 4 kg and 6 kg loads sit either side of this one, the 6 kg version being supplied with a handle.
Are complete sets available?
Yes. Balls are sold individually and a full inventory for a box or a functional area is quoted per project.

Care and storage
Wipe after use: sweat is the first cause of corrosion on metal parts. Store on a rack rather than on the floor to protect the coating. On a bar, brush the knurling with a nylon brush and apply a light film of oil. Replace any cut coating.
