SteelBells®

Hyperwear’s SteelBells are roughly half the size (per weight) of their counterpart, the SandBell, but they pack twice the dynamic punch – utilizing tiny balls of steel shot, rather than sand, as their filler material. This patented design combines the best features of dumbbells, kettlebells, medicine balls, and sandbag training . . . working your core, challenging your grip and stabilizer muscles, and pushing your stamina.

Each SteelBell is constructed from extra-thick neoprene with a textured surface for grip improvement. Sizes and weights range from 5LB to 125LB, providing the total range necessary to continually step up weight training requirements.

SteelBell vs. SandBell

The density and size per weight is the biggest difference between the SteelBell and the lower-priced Hyperwear SandBell. For example: a 9” diameter SteelBell weighs 10LB, while a 9” SandBell weighs just 4LB. Similarly, a 125LB SteelBell is the same diameter as a 50LB SandBell. The steel shot inside the SteelBell also moves around faster than sand, with more dynamic, almost water-like shifting inside the bell. Due to the combination of inertia and the shifting steel shot, a 20LB SteelBell feels and responds like a much heavier weight – sort of like the difference between picking up a sleeping child and one that is flailing. This shift challenges balance, coordination, core response, and stabilizing muscles, simultaneously.

Although the SteelBell is twice as dense as the SandBell, it is still extremely safe for all ages and will not damage floor surfaces. It makes for a great kettlebell and medicine ball replacement because you can swing or throw the SteelBell with maximum effort without fear of injury to yourself or others. No more worries about hitting knees or ankles or jamming a finger.
