YMX BOXING® Ultimate Reflex Ball Set with Counter App - 4 React Reflex Ball Plus 2 Adjustable Headband, Great for Reflex, Timing, Accuracy, Focus & Coordination Training for Boxing, MMA and Krav Mega

Okay, so I saw this YMX BOXING Reflex Ball set online and thought, "Hey, that looks like fun! And maybe I'll finally develop the hand-eye coordination of a slightly above-average squirrel!" What arrived was a reality check attached to an elastic string, connected to a headband that makes me look like I'm about to compete in a very aggressive game of headband tennis. The first few minutes were... humbling. The ball had a personal vendetta against my nose. It was less "boxing training" and more "me flailing wildly while a small foam sphere repeatedly assaults my face." My dog was concerned, my cat was utterly unimpressed (as usual), and I'm pretty sure my houseplants were silently judging me. I looked like a one-person circus act gone horribly wrong. BUT! And this is a big BUT. Something magical started to happen. After dodging approximately 73 face-shots, I actually started hitting the ball. Consistently! It felt like a major life achievement. Forget climbing Everest, I was conquering the bouncing menace! This little set is sneaky. You think you're just goofing around, looking ridiculous, but then suddenly your shoulders are burning, your reflexes are kicking in, and you're actually getting a decent cardio workout without even realizing it. It's the most fun I've had being terrible at something in a long time. The set comes with different balls for different skill levels. I started with the beginner ball, which I affectionately named "Pathetic Patty" because she was the only one I could reliably hit. I've since graduated to "Ambitious Annie," and while she still gets the better of me sometimes, the progress is real! Plus, you get two headbands, so you can look equally silly with a friend or significant other. Misery loves company, and apparently, so does looking like a boxing bobblehead. If you want a genuinely fun way to improve your reflexes, get a surprising workout, and provide endless entertainment for anyone watching, buy this. Just be prepared to laugh at yourself. A lot. It's a fantastic, hilarious, and surprisingly effective training tool. Five out of five slightly bruised but happy noses!

Great item the kids loved straight out of the box played with it for over two hours War themselves out. It’s great for eye hand coordination. Plus it’s soft so no getting hurt .

Two nice headbands, 4 balls and extra string. 6 and 9 year old grandsons are having fun and parents too. I think this is a fun coordination and timing toy, we competed on how many times we could hit it. I bought one for hubby and me to play with too!

So fun! But could not get the app to download. It’s frustrating Only using the yellow ball so far. Definitely takes consistent effort and practice. But exciting to see improvement in a couple days. Part of my daily routine. When I need to clear my head or have been reading too much I put this on and do it for about 30 minutes. Really helps me focus and maintain concentration. Wish I’ve gotten this a lot sooner.

Whole family loves it. Comes with different difficulty of elastic string too. Can't seem to find the supposed app for counting the hits though so I had to mark it down. QR code doesn't work. Their website doesn't exist and the play store doesn't have anything

As advertised

I purchased this for 3 separate Christmas parties. It is a great family friendly and potentially competitive activity. I couldn’t really understand the QR code to get the app (iPhone). It kept sending me an error. But I wasn’t really interested in using it anyways. It was a fun time for all ages. It became a core memory activity. But be careful, because you can (and likely will) get hit in the face. So just keep that in mind. On the bright side, you will get many laughs from onlookers as you get bonked in the head.

Just got this delivered Friday night. The next morning I set up the first primary ball. Wasn't going hard but was moving at like 50%. That band broke in 20 mins. I'm writing this after the second primary band snapped after about 50 mins. If the others break this quick I'll never buy again. Normally I'd get the tekxyz boxing reflex ball and I can go near 100% and each band will last at least two weeks. This is something like the 3rd time I've bought this brand and each time it was a mistake.
