Why should you utilise a floor to ceiling ball?
A floor to ceiling ball is an incredibly useful boxing training aid for improving your overall boxing skills & is a fantastic general fitness development tool.
You can train a wide range of skills for boxing & other sports such as hand speed, hand-eye coordination, footwork, upper body evasion, parrying, guarding, slipping, ducking, and so much more.
They are also inexpensive, user friendly & incredibly easy to install in your home/gym
Size matters!
The main consideration you need to make when choosing the best floor to ceiling ball for your training is the size of the ball.
If you're just starting boxing training, your accuracy may be off point & in order to improve it, you'll need a ball that is large & easy to continuously strike and compensates for missed/inaccurate punches.
For advanced students or professional boxers/fighters, a floor to ceiling ball with a smaller ball is recommended.
Why?
With a smaller target, you'll be able to hone in on your punching accuracy, foot movement, upper body evasion, guarding, parrying & many more vital skills needed for sparring & competition.
A smaller ball provides additional difficulty & rewards to those willing to take the challenge!
