Something to hold on to

<b>Harbinger Weighted Fitness Ball With Strap:</b> Sand-filled ball of soft PVC plastic with a Velcro strap to hold it to hand or foot.<br>
<br>
<b>Likes: </b>More useful than a similar-weighted dumbbell. That's because, in addition to a variety of core and upper body exercises, these 6-, 8- or 10-pound balls can also be used for leg exercises (adductor/abductor, curl and extension). It's  also much safer than metal dumbbells because it doesn't hurt when it drops on your big toe. Can be held in one or two hands.<br>
<br>
<b>Dislikes: </b>The weights are non-adjustable and too light for dedicated gym rats.<br>
<br>
<b>Price: </b>$20 (6 pounds), $25 (8 pounds), $30 (10 pounds). Available only from retailers; prices will vary. (800) 729-5954;  <a href="http://www.harbingerfitness.com">www.harbingerfitness.com</a>.
