@Jarrod_Dixon There haven't been studies done on the effects of using weighted balls, but I don't recommend it. Since juggling is a continuous endurance activity like running, juggling heavy objects could lead to a repetitive stress injury. Experts in the medical field do not recommend walking with ankle or wrist weights for the same reason.

As you get better, learn new patterns and moves (juggling tricks) or work on using more than three balls. There are endless free videos out there to keep you busy for a lifetime!
