Gaiam Total Body Balance Ball Kit – inkl. Anti-Burst-Stabilität, Yoga-Ball, Luftpumpe, Workout-Programm

Really good

I have bouhgt loads of Dvd but I just love DVD that came inside this set. It brings fun into workout so you don't feel like a robot but actually enjoying yourself in your own place and in your own time.

Can't comment on the final product because, although the barcode said it was a 75cm ball, the box and the ball itself both stated it was only 65cm, so I had to send it back. Interestingly, the return email from Amazon define the return as being becuase it was undeliverable (ie my fault for not being in) as opposed to the fact the product was labelled incorrectly. Becuase of this, I now have to re-order if I want to get the right size rather than them just sending what I asked for.

Great for my exercise routine!

It’s easy to set up and use

Diameter von 75cm ließ sich nicht erreichen, auch wenn der Anleitung des Herstellers genau gefolgt wurde (über 2Tage aufpumpen, lange warten). Zeitverschwendung!

Great for lower back and pelvis. Keeps back straight.

It sort of surprises me that humans haven't adopted these for all chairs yet. Not only is it comfortable, but it really encourages movement and fires new patterns for activity because it's almost impossible to sit on it in the same mundane and uncomfortable ways that we generally do with chairs. Even when I'm not devoting time exclusively toward exercise, I'm moving around with it all the time. What I enjoy most about the balance ball is that it blurs the lines between exercise and sitting and is therefore more motivating and encouraging to move. When I start feeling the usual aches I've become used to, I notice that I start moving around to correct it with this instead of sitting on my feet or propping my legs up like I used to. Sometimes I'll just lay completely horizontal on it for a little while until my back feels better, and it's great. In addition, when I am exercising, I've been able to naturally and intuitively target portions of my abs that before felt a lot more cumbersome because of the hard floor factor. The reason I like the Gaiam one in particular is because it's a lot sturdier than some that I've used. The material is really thick, and the pump works quite well despite the feeling I got when I first started pumping. There are 3 little white stakes included to seal the air pocket. You'll get a heavy chemical-laden smell out of the box that will go away in a few days. That's with any of these. To expedite it, it's important to soak it with soap and hand wash it before you inflate it. These things are made in plastic factories, not in daisy fields. I've sent things back before (like weights) that were unbearably harmful and smelly, but this is reasonable and worth the quality trade-off. Overall, I think this ball is going to last, and like I said, it's great for exercise, posture, movement, and sitting. I don't miss the so-called "back support" of a chair now that I've been using this. It never existed!
