The Beastie Ball Series products don’t replace the RumbleRoller, but they are more specific in purpose. Use them to dig deeper into a troublesome area, or to work with greater detail on smaller muscles – e.g. those of the forearms and calves.
The Beastie was created to overcome the many limitations of conventional massage balls:
 Too Big
Larger balls can be used to massage broad surfaces of your body, but they won’t get into more confined areas (e.g. close to your spine) and are too blunt to dig into the muscle.
 Too Small
Smaller balls, such as golf balls, are relatively inconvenient to use because they need to be elevated on a block to reach many areas of your body.
 Too Hard
Balls with very hard surfaces will dig deeper into the muscle, but can also bruise the bone. That makes them less effective than a ball with a more elastic surface.
 Too Soft
Inflated balls or ones made of foam can’t provide enough localized force for deep-tissue massage, and don’t hold up well to heavier use.
 Too Absorbent
Balls with fabric or knitted covers absorb sweat, dirt, and bacteria, and are more difficult to clean.
 Too Shallow
Putting bumps on a ball is a step in the right direction, but shallow bumps only provide superficial stimulation and aren’t effective for deep-tissue.
 Too Crowded
Taller bumps have the potential to dig deeper into the muscle, but placing them too close together limits their penetration and negates the effect.
 Too Sparse
Having too few bumps can also be a problem. This type of massage ball doesn’t roll, so it’s difficult to reposition when you’re lying on top of it.
 We wanted you to have not just a great massage ball, but the best possible massage ball. So we invested considerable time, attention, and resources in its development. Here are the results of our efforts:
Â
Use of the Detachable Base
The detachable base is more than just a place to park your Beastie Ball when you’re done using it. It’s a fundamental, patent pending part of the Beastie system, and it provides these distinct benefits:
Â
Â
Elevation
The Base elevates the Beastie an additional 1/2″ above the surface, to better access hard-to-reach areas of your body.
Intensification
The Base orients the Beastie so that one of its bumps is held firmly in a straight-up position. That guarantees maximum penetration of the muscle.
Stabilization
The Base prevents the Beastie from rolling. That facilitates more controlled massage techniques, and it also allows you to work off the side of the Beastie to generate higher shear forces in the muscle tissue.
Retention
The Base retains the Beastie so that it can more easily be used in off-the-floor applications

The Beastie Ball is from the makers of RumbleRoller which makes the RumbleRoller the alternative to foam rollers for deep tissue muscular release. While the RumbleRoller works great over larger areas like the arms, lats, thighs and calfs, there are times where a smaller focus area to get in deep to release muscular knots is called for and this is where the Beastie Ball really shines. There are alot of massage balls out there but what I like about the Beastie Ball is that it comes with a base that allows you to press the base either against a floor or a wall while targeting very specific muscular tensions that you want to work on with the Beastie. The Beastie comes in two colors the original white which is softer and the yellow which is the harder version. I got the yellow Beastie as I can control the amount of force to work on sore tender spots and just a couple of minutes with the Beastie and the applying some flossing helps me to recover faster, release strains and get back on training again. In addition, being the small compact size it is, I can bring the Beastie even on my travels unlike the RumbleRoller which will take up a fair amount of space. Highly recommend the Beastie if you are serious about your training and recovery.

I use it to massage my head and neck. I like the texture of the beastie ball on them. I chose FIRM for texture and hardness. Just right to give me the touch.
