Exercise balls are available in a number of forms.
There are large pilates balls specifically suited to pilates
exercises. Medicine balls are used as a training aid for a
variety of different exercises. There are also a number of
different types of timing balls used in developing accuracy
and timing of martial arts strikes and kicks. A Swiss ball
is a ball constructed of elastic rubber with a diameter of
around 55 to 85 cm (22 to 34 inches). It is used in physical
therapy and exercise. The Swiss ball is also
known by a number of different names, including exercise
ball, gym ball, pilates ball, sports
ball, fit or fitness ball, stability
ball, therapy ball, yoga ball,
balance ball, or body ball. It
is larger and lighter than a medicine ball.
An exercise ball can also be used to help treat low back
pain and to prevent future back pain episodes. The ball helps
by strengthening and developing the core body muscles.
Choosing an Exercise Ball
Before you buy an exercise ball,
make sure it's the right size for your height. To test it,
sit on the ball and make sure your hips are level or just
slightly higher than the knees :
- 55 cm - 4'11" - 5'4" (164 cm) tall or shorter
- 65 cm - 5'5" - 5'10" (166 177 cm) tall
- 75 cm - 6'0" - 6' 7" (above 177 cm)
How To Use Your Exercise Ball
Exercise balls challenge by putting your body in an unstable
environment. When you lie on the ball, your legs and abs immediately
contract to keep you from falling off. Add an exercise to
that (like a chest press or a crunch), and you've just increased
the intensity of the movement. Bonus: Exercise balls are versatile
enough to use for just about anything, including:
- Weight training. Use the stability ball as your new 'weight
bench' to add difficulty to the movements and incorporate
the muscles of your legs, butt and abs.
- Abdominal training. Doing crunches, twists and other traditional
exercises on the ball adds difficulty to the movement by
recruiting more muscles.
- Sitting around. Just sitting on an exercise ball can be
a challenge and it's a great way to improve your posture
when sitting in front of a computer or watching television.
Practice by sitting on it and raising one foot off the ground
and balancing or try some of these beginner ball exercises.
- Flexibility, yoga and pilates exercises. The ball is great
for stretching and relaxing, such as in this Relaxing Stretch
on the Ball workout or this Yoga on the Ball workout.
- Playing around. It's a workout tool but, don't forget,
it's also a ball. Your kids will love playing with it, just
keep an eye on them so they don't hurt themselves.
