Exercise Balls
By Donovan Baldwin

Exercise Ballsicon are one of the most innovative ways to exercise. These simple little balls will catch the fancy of many exercisers due to their shape and attractive colors. The real benefit of these balls, which were introduced by a group of Swiss medical therapists, is as a substitute for support during exercise.

It might surprise you to learn that working out with exercise balls will help to strengthen and tone all of the major muscle groups of the body. The soft texture of exercise balls make them an ideal choice for many positions and movements in yoga, use with dumbbell exercises for muscle toning, or working on heavy duty weight training equipment.

One major advantage of exercise balls is that they are durable and maintain shape well under pressure. The information which usually comes with the balls will provide guidance on how much weight the exercise balls will hold. Their particular advantage is the fact that the balls provide soft yet firm support for your body while allowing you to perform exercises at all levels without injury or major discomfort.

You can find exercise balls in several different colors and finishes. You can even get a ball that matches the texture of your room. They are simple to store and you can even roll them under your bed or a table if you prefer. When you aren't using them, you can let kids play with them. These balls are very fun for kids, as they are very soft and won't cause them any harm.

Medical equipment

Originally developed for use in medical therapy, the exercise ball is used to support the body during exercise. These balls will provide support to the body when you do a specific exercise in a specific position and still need to maintain the balance. Most exercise balls are made of burst-proof latex or other material that is very safe to use.

There are many postures with yoga and muscle toning exercise that can only be done with the help of support. For these postures, exercise balls are quite useful. The exercise balls will introduce an element of stability to the exercise that you wouldn't normally get with the floor exercise.

Your body responds automatically to the instability to keep balanced on the exercise ball. This will help in strengthening the muscles that aren't actively participating in exercise.

Exercise is also very useful for physiotherapy treatment. Exercise balls will help to get rid of backache and various spinal disorders. The small range of movement and adjustment of balance of the spine that is induced by using an exercise ball will help reduce back pain.

For people with back pain, the kb>Swiss ball exercise provides a simple way to restore movements after an episode of back pain. This exercise also results in improved muscle strength, greater flexibility, and a wide range of motion of the spine during treatment.
