DieselCrew.com - Homemade Tornado Ball

When developing rotational torso strength, coaches sometimes use a tornado ball.

Here is a quick way to make your own that is durable, adjustable, inexpensive and utilizes tools that you already have.

Take a med ball and put into an army duffle bag. Quick and easy and the weight can be adjusted, by using different size med balls.

This setup can also be used for throwing (rotational, backward, transverse movement patterns) and is safe for inside gymnasium use.

@RatedATG i actually use a 33 lb tire it works fine. of course u could use a smaller one. and its rubber so it bounces like a medicine ball

@RatedATG Put water in a soccer ball. Trying to help. ahaha.

We used to put water in football to make them harder and heavier so when the RB would run through with a normal ball it would feel light.

you need some form of weight in it. try to use sand or rocks and wrap them in old clothes or sheets. get inventive. you need 2 things: weight, and something to absorb/dissapate the energy of the pack when the weight strikes the wall.

i'd double up on the laundry bag though. the duffle bag is designed to get mistreated, slung around, carry alot of weight, all that good stuff. it's made out of a far more durable material, and is usually stiched rather well. the standard army laundry bag is designed to hold clothes. ;;

I don't have a med ball, what could I use?

thaks for the idea

[yopersonaltraina]

I guess an army laundry bag would work too. Its smaller than the duffle but much stronger than a pillow case
