5kg vs Other Weights: Comparative Table

1kg: beginners, rehabilitation, elderly, warm-up

Difference vs. Economical Balls

Economical 5kg medicine balls (€20-25) use low-density rubber that deforms after 50-100 heavy slams, single stitching that fails under stress, and irregular filling (unbalanced weight). Toorx guarantees extra-dense rubber, triple stitching, calibrated sand, and an anti-roll base. Durability: 5x higher under intensive use.

Care and Maintenance

Cleaning: damp cloth with neutral detergent after each session. Storage: dry place, no direct sunlight, no temperatures below 0°C. Inspection: check seams every 2 weeks with intensive use. Expected lifespan: 3-5 years with 5+ sessions/week.

Combine with: 3kg medicine ball (warm-up), 8kg medicine ball (progression), 10kg no-bounce slam ball, 20-24kg kettlebell, 20-30kg sandbag, adjustable wall ball target, chalk grip.
