Reflex exercises

10 exercises to improve your reflexes

Improving reflexes is essential in many sports such as football, boxing, and tennis. Hand-eye coordination and reaction speed allow for better decision-making and improved performance.

With Formiball, each color corresponds to a specific action:

🔴 Red → right hand or foot
🔵 Blue → left hand or foot
🟢 Green → two hands or two feet

This further stimulates the brain and improves rapid decision-making.

🔵 right foot
🟢 both feet (alternating or controlled)

Try to keep the ball in the air as long as possible while respecting the color instructions.
