Last week I bought a pair of Elite Rings and a Dynamax ball. Every time I buy things like this I hear that Pin Head Hellraiser voice in my head: "Oh the fun we will have."

The rings are great, lighter then my blast straps and a little less complicated then my TRX straps they can go anywhere and are great for Zero-G exercises. All you need is a place to hang them from and you are ready to go. My biggest complaint was that my gym wasn't as friendly as I hoped they would be about me hanging them from there water pipes... Oh well.

Who has the biggest balls of them all? I do, well not quite. I opted for the ten-pound Dynamax ball so I could do more functional training with it. The thing you have to consider about any medicine ball is once you get past a certain poundage it just becomes another weight. Go with something that is a little lighter and you will be able to do a little more with it.
