The LMX. Booty bands are multifunctional, do not take up space and can be used both during your warm-up and during your training. Due to the four available resistances, they are suitable for beginners to advanced athletes.

3. Crossmaxx competition kettlebell
The unique shape of kettlebells allows you to use them for an incredible amount of exercises, from the swing to the push press and from the goblet squat to the deadlift. The Crossmaxx competition kettlebells are characterized by the fact that the sphere and the handle have the same size, regardless of the weight. This means they are ideal for practicing highly technical moves such as the Turkish Get Up or high repetition exercises such as the Snatch and Swing. The grip is also the same for all weights. The diameter of the handle is smaller than with cast iron kettlebells. This is because a smaller handle reduces grip fatigue, so you can keep going for longer.

The Lifemaxx PU dumbbells are made up of one piece, making them sleek and compact. The kg indication is displayed on the top, bottom and front, so you can quickly and easily pick the right weight.

When you hear the name 'wall ball' you immediately think of (surprise) wall balls! This combination of a squat with a throw is not at the top of everyone's favorites list, but it is very effective. The wall ball is a two-in-one exercise, with which you build a serious squat and cardiovascular endurance. However, the Crossmaxx PRO wall ball is suitable for many more exercises. For example, think of:
