A fitness ball (also known as a stability ball) is an inflatable piece of exercise equipment usually constructed out of heavy gauge PVC vinyl or rubber. When inflated, a fitness ball looks much like an over sized beach ball with reinforced ribbing as an anti-burst feature. Exercisers use fitness balls to enhance their routines and isolate the core muscles of the abdomen, chest and back. A fitness ball creates instability, which forces the user to engage these core muscles to counteract a loss of balance. Many exercise programs emphasize daily abdominal work, so adding a stability or fitness ball may reduce the need for isolated abdominal routines.
Benefits of using a ball :
•Improved posture (sitting on the ball helps maintain correct spinal curve) • Improve the body’s stabilisation and co-ordination systems •Reduce back pain caused by poor posture • Stimulate the sensory pathways (particularly important for the elderly) • Increase torso strength and stability • Increase body control, assisting in injury prevention •Improved balance reactions (reduced risk of falling) •Improved cardiovascular fitness and a positive effect on the respiratory system have also been observed. •Work core stabilizers while strengthening other muscles during exercise.
