AbMat Medicine Balls

AbMat Medicine Balls are single-piece, polyurethane, injection-molded medicine balls built to replace the sewn seams and stuffed interior of a traditional med ball with one solid piece of closed-cell foam. All three weight options – 10, 14, and 20 lb – share a consistent 14-inch diameter and an evenly distributed weight, so the size and feel stay the same as you go up in weight. The antibacterial, moisture-resistant foam holds its molded grip texture through slams and wall balls, and the two-year warranty explicitly covers normal slamming use, not just gentle handling.

What is a Miscellaneou?

What’s in Miscellaneous

This is the catch-all for the conditioning tools and accessories that don’t fit a single equipment class — weighted vests and plate carriers, medicine and slam balls, plyo boxes, ab mats, and the odds and ends that round out a garage gym. Items land here because their job (loaded carries, jumps, core work) cuts across the categories rather than sitting neatly inside one.

Who it’s for

Anyone filling in the gaps around the big pieces. If you already have a rack, bar, and plates, this is where you find the vest for rucking and weighted push-ups, the ball for slams and wall throws, or the box for step-ups and box jumps. Match the tool to the training you actually do — a plate carrier for conditioning and rucking, plyo boxes for explosive work — rather than buying the whole shelf.

AbMat’s single-piece, injection-molded medicine balls trade the sewn seams and stuffing of traditional med balls for a slam-proof foam construction that reviewers consistently call the toughest on the market — no fuzz, no tearing, and weight that stays evenly distributed instead of settling to one side. Durability is the clear standout, backed by a two-year warranty that survives normal slamming. The tradeoff is grip and control: the smooth foam is slick out of the box and needs a chalk-and-use break-in period, and the ball’s high bounce off hard surfaces means lifters have to keep their face clear during wall balls and slams. Value is the weakest dimension — at $105–$135 it costs noticeably more than a standard rubber medicine ball, a premium reviewers say is justified mainly for heavy, frequent use rather than occasional training.

  • +Durability: single-piece, no-sewn-seams polyurethane construction reviewers call "apparently indestructible," backed by a two-year warranty that isn't voided by slamming (AbMat; Shredded Dad; Garage Gym Experiment)
  • +Build quality: consistent 14-inch diameter and evenly distributed weight across all three sizes, unlike traditional med balls that reviewers note often feel "heavier on one side" (Gear Mashers video; Garage Gym Reviews)
  • +Functionality: closed-cell antibacterial foam is moisture- and sweat-resistant, holding its shape and grip texture through repeated wall-ball and slam sessions (AbMat; Abmat Plyobox & Wall Ball video)
  • +Versatility: works interchangeably as a medicine ball, wall ball, and slam ball without damage, doubling up on equipment needs (Shredded Dad; Garage Gym Reviews)
  • Value: priced above traditional medicine balls ($105 for 10lb, $120 for 14lb, $135 for 20lb versus roughly $105 for a comparable Rogue ball), a premium reviewers frame as worthwhile mainly for heavy use (Garage Gym Experiment; Shredded Dad)
  • Functionality: smooth, seamless surface is slick out of the box and requires a chalk break-in period before grip improves (Garage Gym Experiment; Abmat Plyobox & Wall Ball video)
  • Functionality: bounces noticeably higher off hard surfaces than a traditional med ball, which reviewers say requires care to avoid a rebound to the face during slams (Garage Gym Reviews; Shredded Dad)
  • Build quality: limited to three weight options (10, 14, 20 lb), narrower than some traditional med ball lines (Garage Gym Experiment)
