Want to improve hand-eye coordination?? Speedballs are the way to go!
Speed Balls are small, air-filled bags anchored at the top to a rebound platform parallel to the ground. Speedballs help a fighter learn to keep his hands up, improve hand-eye coordination and learn to shift weight between feet when punching. Floor/ceiling balls are similar to speed balls; however, they differ slightly in shape as well as having a cable system that is attached to the ceiling and to a clip on the floor. When the boxer places any motion on the floor to ceiling ball, it tightly reacts by swinging fast towards them, the object is to swerve, punch, dodge and learn about co-ordination. The harder and faster the floor to ceiling balls are hit, the more they rebound and react in different motions of angles, thus providing greater co-ordination practice to the fighter.
