Your Perfect Power Rope Ball Combos for Mobility and Stamina
Expand Your Exercise Session From Beginning to End
Get started with your training session and be completely satisfied with the versatility and variety of moves you can complete. Try new movement sequences with the lighter 5" Rope Ball before challenging your core control with the 6.5" Rope Ball. A great combo for multiple users and circuit training between stations.
Mobility And Elasticity In One:
5" Rope Balls are small and light for your double trouble shoulder moves. A great light weight for warm-up stretches and mobility of your wrists, elbows and shoulders. Add hip motions for your rotation control. Use two at the same time for a great chest and thoracic extension stretch as the weight pulls you open. Love
The Double Trouble Endurance:
Take it to the wall and let loose with the 5" Rope Balls. Working in unison with the same movement plane or change it up and work in opposites. You will love the feel of the full shoulder extension and rebound over and over again. The endurance burn keeps you warm and tests your stamina to compete well into overtime.
Big Hits And Flow Sequences:
Step up the momentum with the 6.5" Rope Ball and test your strength with big slams against the wall. The added weight is perfect for a powerful swing and sequence compared to the 5" Rope Ball. The added rebound strength forces you to eccentrically control your shoulder and stability and you effortlessly move into pivots and around the body moves.
Elysia's Notes:
The perfect training set for my medium days. I love the extra burn from the 5" Power Rope Balls as I test my endurance with the light and compact weight. When I am ready for heavier one arm shoulder mobility and above the head swings I turn to my favorite 6.5" Rope Ball. Some days I'm swinging it and having so much fun the time slips by before I get to slamming against the wall.
At the end of my training I will go back to the 5" Rope Balls and pound out what's left of my stamina. You are all set for a fantastic training session of shoulder mobility, fast explosive moves and powerhouse feats of strength! Add in the 3" Mini balls for hand eye coordination ball tosses, quick release drills or tissue release for a nice cool down. This is a great package when working with multiple clients and classes.

Getting The Most of Our Superior Rebound:
Our Power Rope Balls rebound unlike any other and creates tremendous reaction energy. The harder you slam against the wall the greater the fast rebound and eccentric muscle control with shoulder stability needed. To properly bounce against the wall you need full range of motion and to get your hand inches from the wall. Limited range prevents the middle of the ball from hitting the wall and a direct opposite rebound vs hitting the top of the ball.
Get The Right Rope Length For Your Needs and Skill Level:
The longer the rope the farther the weight is from your body. This creates greater force on your joints and can be difficult to control for beginners. A shorter rope may be a better starting point for beginners and those learning shoulder control. Longer ropes give you the ability to slam the Rope Balls on the ground and have more body clearance on the rebound.
How To Measure:
A general rule is to have the rope end at the inside of your elbow crease. This allows you to have ground clearance if doing big shoulder swings. You will have enough rope length for extra grip knots and hand wraps. Measure from the ground to the inside of your elbow. Advanced users may want a longer rope for added hand wraps or behind the back swings.

How To Remove Your Old Rope and Rope Cap:
-

- Stagger the rope ends to allow one to pass through at a time from the bottom flat plug
- Pull the remaining rope through
- Use a cardboard tube and slide the Rope Ball over the tube
- Turn the Rope Ball over and slide firmly over a pipe or broom handle to "pop" the cap out
How To Assemble Your Rope Ball:
-
Your Rope Ball has ridges inside to help secure the bottom plug. This is the plug that has one hole versus two
- Pass your chosen rope length through the Rope Ball. The cap assembly goes inside the smooth surface of the Rope Ball
- Thread one rope end through the bottom plug
- Wedge the second rope end into the bottom plug
- Then pull the longer rope and the second end will follow
- Even out the rope ends. Slide the bottom flat plug to the Rope Ball
- Make sure the rope is not twisted inside the Rope Ball. Push the bottom flat plug to secure it into place. The bottom plug goes into the Rope Ball end with the inside ridges. It may be difficult to push it in
- Gently bounce your Rope Ball on the ground to tighten the rope in the top plug and reduce slack
- Make sure the rope do not twist. Tie the bottom knot to secure the flat plug
- Ensure rope top is protected and does not extend past the top rope cap. The bottom knot will secure the bottom cap. Check all surfaces for damage before and after each use
