Functional training encompasses a wide range of exercises and equipment aimed at improving mobility, strength and coordination in everyday life and sport. In the Functional Training category, you will find specially developed weights that are versatile in use and ideally suited for training in physiotherapy as well as in the fitness and rehabilitation fields. These weights are available in various designs and weight sizes to meet different training goals.
Versatile weights for functional training
Typical products in this category include slam balls, weight bags and weight cuffs. Slam balls are robust balls with a diameter of approximately 24 to 29 cm, filled with sand and made from hard-wearing PVC. They are available in various weights from 4 to 18 kg and are particularly suitable for dynamic exercises that promote strength and explosiveness. Weight bags offer a flexible training option thanks to their elongated shape and variable weight of 5 to 10 kg, while weight cuffs are used primarily for targeted strengthening of the arms and legs.
Selection criteria and areas of use
When choosing the right weights for functional training, factors such as the training goal, the type of exercise and individual fitness play an important role. The colours of the weights, such as black, yellow or green, often help with quick identification of the weight. The materials are robust and designed for intensive use. Functional training weights are frequently used in physiotherapy to support rehabilitation, but also in the fitness field to improve strength, stability and mobility.
