Exercising on an inflatable ball has become very popular over the past few years since it offers such a wide array of exercise possibilities.
The Fitball Gymnic Plus exercise ball is used in aerobic, strength, rehabilitation, birthing and sports specific training programs. It is also used in schools, businesses and home offices for seating. Work longer with less fatigue sitting on a Fitball exercise ball instead of a chair. The ball causes "active sitting" whereby the abdominal and back muscles are constantly working to create a natural, erect posture. For children, sitting on a ball releases excess energy and may improve concentration. Break the monotony and fatigue of poor, passive sitting with a Fitball exercise ball. Usually, 65 cm- 75cm is recommended for seating to achieve the correct seating height and ergonomics in relation to standard desk and table heights (29"-30"). Thighs should be parallel to the floor or at a slightly higher angle.
The Fitball material remains soft and forgiving at the correct inflation diameter. The ball will also hold it's round shape over time and not become egg shaped. Can't decide which home gym to purchase? Then why not launch your program with a small investment in a ball. It's a complete gym in a portable, inflatable spheroid. Include with each ball is a complimentary poster illustrating ball exercises. See our complete line of exercise ball instructional videos for additional workouts and exercises focusing on abs, back, upper and lower body strength, yoga, pilates and balance.

Inflate
Remove the plug from the ball. Do not use a sharp object to remove the plug. A coin (quarter) can be used to raise the plug enough to pull it out. The manufacturer includes a packet containing an extra plug and a pump adaptor. The adaptor is made for bicycle pumps, which can be used to inflate your ball. However, bicycle pumps are designed to inflate small items to a high pressure. Exercise balls have a large volume and a low pressure. Pumps designed to inflate large items work best on exercise balls.
The balls are inflated according to size, not pressure. Never inflate the ball larger than the recommended diameter. Each ball has the maximum diameter (width) printed on it in centimeters and inches. To insure proper inflation, place the un-inflated ball between two flat, upright surfaces, such as a wall and a box. Make sure the box is the same distance from the wall as the ball's diameter. Inflate the ball until it just touches the 2 surfaces.
