Description
Hyperwear Pre-Filled Sandbells® 2-50lb
Hyperwear's SandBell® is a cross between a sandbag, a dumbbell, a barbell, a grip bag, a medicine ball, a slam ball, a stability pod, a gliding disk, and a kettlebell. Made of tough stretchy neoprene, the SandBell is the most versatile and enjoyable functional weight training tool on the market. Sizes range from 2lb to 50lb.
Thick neoprene is soft and stretchy to the touch, but also durable enough to be pulled, yanked, and abused daily. One side shows a Hyper Wear Logo with the SandBell’s weight in pounds and kilograms. A colored ring encircles the SandBell, giving a visual indication of the weight.
The Difference
The main difference between the SandBell® and SteelBell™ is the density and size per weight. For example, the diameter of a 4 lb SandBell is 9 inches. A 9 inch diameter SteelBell weighs 10 lb. A 150 lb SteelBell is the same diameter as a 50 lb SandBell.
Another difference is the increased amount of dynamic shifting inside the bell as the SteelBell is shifted (the steel shot moves more like a liquid than sand, shifting more quickly than sand). Due to the combination of inertia and shifting sand, a 20 lb SandBell feels and responds like a much heavier weight. This slow shift challenges balance, coordination, core response, and stabilizing muscles.
The SandBell is safe like the SteelBell. It makes for a great dumbbell, kettlebell and medicine ball replacement because you can swing or throw the SandBell with maximum effort without fear of injury to self or others. No more worries about hitting your knees or ankles or jamming a finger.
