This is a great tool. Better for a true fighter that many expensive tools. If you know how to use a speed bag this will come to you right away. Ya, it will take a little time to get the feel. This is how you want to start: measure string about arm length from shoulder. . Do not cut string! The sting is in a small piece of material, (plastic) Place the plastic thing that holds the string in side the headband. rap it around the ban. It should be just above the bellybutton. Start by tapping it lightly until you get a rhythm going/ A feel. as you bet better you will be able to do it 30 x I had it for a few Hours. I know I will get to the point of continuously non stop. Remember a fighter keeps his head fixed with shoulder chin bent slightly shoulder up slightly. foot work will help. This may be a toy but I remember as a kid in the Gym/ Boxing. there was a couch that took one of those paddle balls & took it off and placed it on a head strap. He had this fight do it until he got it. . Back than this was a cultivated way. This is great to improve form, dex, softness , time, balance of mind.
Either that, or these people give up on anything and everything that even challenges them slightly. Make sure it's adjusted to your height (standing straight up, head forward, the ball should be hanging in front of your belly button). Once it's adjusted, with a little persistent, you can start chaining some nice combos.
Start yellow, and punch lightly. Once you get the timing of moving your hands back and fourth and can consistently hit the ball, either punch a little harder, or move up to the next level ball. Also consider wearing safety glasses. I've had the band snap back on my nose and eye with a decent little sting. I would wear some eye protection when you use this.
When i first started, i missed more than i hit, or would quickly break the combo. Two days later, playing with it an hour or two a day, i hit way more than i miss, and i can consistently combo 25+ punches without much effort. Now the challenge is trying to punch and move at the same time. Footwork combined makes for a hell of an exercise for coordination.
We just received our boxing head ball a couple of days ago. It has had our family in stitches. Its actually not easy, but we were pleased there is an easy ball and a professional one, we are just going with the easy for now. I can totally see why someone is using it for a person with Parkinsons, hand eye co-ordination is a must with this and its so much fun. We have two boys 13 and 7 and they were giggling at each other as its not as easy as it looks, however living in current victorian lockdown with covid in a two bedroom apartment, we need to exercise and get some energy out of the boys, this is one way that is brilliant for that purpose. I really thought I was buying a gymic but honestly we are really impressed with it. I would honestly recommend!
We have become huge fans of this alleged training tool. In all honesty, it*s an unexpected party game at our house. Everyone who comes by feels the need to stop and play. It*s not hard to get a couple of bops in, but hit it too hard, and it hits back. While I originally bought it for reflex exercise, it*s turned out to be our favorite drinking game. Nothing is more hilarious than a bunch of drunks trying to hit a ball like they*re manic ally cats. We haven*t moved up balls yet because we enjoy having teeth and over punching this bad boy brings a big whap in the face immediately afterwards (unless you*re agile enough to block or dodge, but it*s connected to your head, so good luck with that). Our neighbors loved it so much, they got one for themselves. I*m sure it*s also great for its intended use, but it*s also one of the best toys for grownish people.
I would recommend this to anyone at any level. After 20 years of training, I think this small investment is going to pay off very big to shore up where some of my body has gotten lazy.
I'm really looking forward to getting better at this. It's comfortable to wear, the balls are foam so they are comfortable to hit with a bare fist, and it comes with replacement strings. You can also log onto their YouTube page for ideas on training, apparently,I'll check that out next.
But yes, buy this, it's very good reaction drilling.
Bought one set for my 10 year old then ordered another set after Christmas for my 13 year old! They have had such a great time and everyone in the family has joined in the fun! They're great quality and have extra clips and string too. One of my sons uses gloves, another wraps. They're getting better each day! Highly recommend!
I can't say enough about this product I'm literally addicted to this. First day or two felt a little funny but now ima beast. It's true it's take time and practice but once u start to get it it's amazing.
It's a great product to work out with its fun once you get the hang of it
It's not really a product to learn boxing I've been boxing since I was 13 so it took me by the 2day I had control of it for someone that's never box it's going to take a few weeks to get control but once you get it you won't stop I do my wam up with it at the gym and at the boxing gym I really like it the only thing you need is patience
I was expecting this to be much easier than it actually is. I watched many videos before getting this and they made it look so easy. The first few times I tried it, I was only able to get that initial punch in and nothing more. Now the most I've gotten so far has been 4 hits, which is still not very impressive. Good thing I started with the beginner ball since I hit myself in the face a few times.
It comes with 3 different difficulty balls, from beginner to boxer with different levels of softness/hardness, and that's great so you can move up the ranking as you improve. The stings are very strong and stretchy and it even came with some extra strings incase you lose or break one.
All in all a good purchase, just needs practice!

Tekxyz, per me, miglior azienda per quanto riguarda la reflex ball e per untimo, ottimo bundle: Ci sono i ricambi degli elastici, che non 豕 poco, 3 palline di peso diverso per progredire, e sacca per portarsi dietro fascia e pallina... Direi perfetto.
The idea of this product is quite simple but does take a lot of practice to master it. The balls are all soft enough to not hurt if they hit you, but they will swing around, so you do have to use this in an area that gives you a lot of space.
Because I share this with my son, who is not the same height as me, it takes a lot of effort to undo the knots, remeasure, and then knot the elastic to the headband again. I wish this kit came with a clip or fastener to make swapping the balls out faster, but a single user should not have trouble with this minor inconvenience.
Overall, I must say that we are having more fun than we expected and it does feel like a workout and reflex training device.
I have owned this product for a couple of months now. I do about 8 sets of ten minutes per day and burn approximately 600 calories.
It works great and is a fun workout. I would highly recommend.
My child wants to start boxing. My daughter's boyfriend has a similar product and after looking on Amazon and reading reviews we settled on this one. My son loves it and it is been a huge help and preparing him for his upcoming boxing lessons and hand-eye coordination. It is also fun for the whole family to watch those of us with less coordination attempt to do it. We have really enjoyed this product!
It helps toy improve your reflexes. Its a lot of fun . Kids love this product . Initially its little difficult to manage but you will get better after practicing few times. Have patience and Keep trying .Very Handy and easy to carry anywhere. It really helps me for quick warm up.
For the price you can*t beat it. Plus this work out keeps your heart rate at 120 bpms which is perfect for burning fat. Take your time with this reflex ball. Remember that it punches back. Once you get the timing down then you can start doing upper cuts and hooks. This should be in every martial artists gym.
These have been super fun and challenging. Takes a bit of time to get used to them but once you do, it's a lot of fun and a pretty good little work out.
Out of the dozens of gifts opened on Christmas day, I had no idea this one would take the cake. My kids ages 6 and up are all obsessed with this thing. It's been several weeks and the novelty hasn't worn off- they are so entertained by it. It does take just a minute to set up- get the elastic to the right length, tie it and cut it. Comes with extra hooks and elastic. The easy level is just right for us beginners. It's a lot of fun!
Easy to use for anyone of any age. Great gift for combat fighters. Headband fits okay it is adjustable. Good value with 3 different levels to chose from.
The product is as described. It's a little more difficult than I thought it would be to get started. It took me about three days of one hour per day practice to get to the point where I could hit the ball consistently instead of just hitting air. A nice indoor sport and outdoor as well. I had an issue related to my shoulders last year and have not been able to get to physical therapy. This has helped a great deal and it's fun. Just be patient when you're first starting out.
My husband had something like this on his wishlist. We got this one for him for Father's Day. He's 28 and loves it! He's been doing and watching more boxing workouts as he's been working from home.
He said he's noticed his reflexes sharpening
He really enjoys using it anywhere! Our daughters also have fun trying it out. He even brought it on our family vacation! Great gift!
Omg. My fiancee is obsessed. He plays with this all the time at home. He shows it off to his friends and makes a fun game out of it when we have people over.It's great for a reflex training tool or just having fun.The different weighted and colored balls make it fun too so he can have an easier or harder 'work out'
Not the most solid construction.
It does come with extra bands which will be necessary.
Attaching the bands to the metal ring on the forehead band is a pain, they really should just have a small clip to attach the elastic band to the headband.
Each ball has a different use and rating and that is nice to have to switch it up.
If you are serious about reflex work there are much more sturdy things out there however for the price this is pretty solid.
