Product Review - Medicine Balls - TKO vs. FFP

I first bought some med balls when I got P90X2.  While they are used in some other exercises they are primarily used for doing push ups.  This may involve combinations of one, two or four med balls.  Originally I purchased TKO brand med balls.  I was quite disappointed in the TKO med balls.  The density of the balls was not consistent.  As a result when trying to balance on them while doing push ups, the balls were likely to collapse under my body weight. While Tony and the crew in the DVD are halfway through a set, I would often be wasting time trying to find a spot on the med balls that would support my weight.

After a few weeks of that nonsense I bought some more balls, this time a product from FFP (FFP Premium Medicine Balls).  These balls are much better.  With a consistent density I have had no problems with using them for push ups.


If you are looking for med balls you may want to check that the product you are buying has a consistent density and that they will work for whatever purpose you are planning on using them for.
