Exercise balls

Used for core stability, exercise balls or Swiss Balls, are relatively new pieces of fitness equipment, but are becoming more and more popular. The Exercise Ball can be used to exercise just the lower portions of the body - just the upper or the whole body at once - you can choose to isolate which muscle groups you want to exercise.

Effectively performing exercise ball activities requires careful selection of the right exercise ball size. Because personal consultations are not always possible physical therapists, exercise trainers and other professionals have constructed several guidelines to use when selecting the proper exercise ball size.
