Product Description
BOSU Balance Trainer
Amazon.com Product Description
From the elite athlete to weekend warriors trying to stay in shape, this Bosu Balance Trainer helps to strengthen and coordinate your body (including the muscles that you don't see). The trainer targets the core muscles of your body--those muscles around your abdominal and back area--helping you to not only gain strength, trim, and tone, but to help coordinate your entire body. This set includes a blue Bosu balance trainer, a workout DVD, a pump, and an exercise manual that will help get you started. About Bosu Training
The BOSU acronym stands for "Both Sides Utilized" and has evolved beyond the original BOSU Balance Trainer product. It now represents an approach to exercise that is more mindful than traditional training. At its essence, BOSU Training is about expanding movement capabilities while reshaping the body and strengthening the mind. It is comprised of thoughtful movement that requires the participant to not only be physically involved, but also "here and present" with the mind fully engaged. BOSU Training can be physically demanding, but when properly taught, it is appropriate to a variety of fitness levels and physical capabilities. Use BOSU Training to help enhance performance across a wide continuum of activities including sport, recreation, and daily tasks.

Excellent price for a valuable piece of exercise eqpt. I use it as part of a program designed to increase core strength and balance after major back surgery - it's terrific, a perfect compliment to the balance ball (a/k/a physio ball). I used the Bosu Ball in physical therapy and shopped around for the best pricing I could find on a Bosu Ball to use at home. It comes with a booklet of exercises to do - more can be found on the net - and to kick it up a notch, get a second Bosu Ball and use both at the same time. For more of a challenge after you have the basics mastered, flip it over, NOW try!
THE BOSU BALL IS AN EXCELLENT PRODUCT FOR EVERYONE! December 29, 2008
The Bosu Ball is an excellent piece of exercise equipment for anyone and everyone. One should be careful when beginning to use this product as you will tend to fall off of it. I suggest using it on carpet, rug, or exercise mat. Also, children, older adults, OR ANYONE who has severe balancing difficulties should have a partner to spot them, that is, let them hold your hand or your arm for stability. Never leave them alone when they are using the BOSU.
The BOSU Ball is not a toy, and hence, should not be used as one.
When I took an excercise class for fun, they had BOSU Balls available for us. I became determined to master this piece of equipment, and therefore, I practiced with it during every class. All you need to do is practice with it for 10 to 15 minutes a day (less if that suits you) and gradually, you become pretty good at mastering several of the excercises (and there are NUMEROUS ways to use the BOSU).
My mother is 80, and she was thrilled when the BOSU arrived. I had taken video of myself while practicing using it in class. Mom and I use it daily (Mom needs my assistance), and WE ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. It seems pricey; however, it is well worth the money. True BOSU's are very durable and easy to inflate (Mom and I use the hand pump). This product should last for years if taken care of and used properly.
 A great piece of fitness equipment August 29, 2008

This is a terrific piece of fitness gear and has an wonderful workout DVD included.
The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is the price. This is the cheapest I could find anywhere but let's get real: It's half an exercise ball mounted on a flat platform.
I love it. May 19, 2008

I bought the Bosu Balance Trainer because I have noticed in recent years that my balance is not as good as it once was (I'm in my 70s).
I use it every morning while watching the news on TV. Been following the steps specified in the directions for becoming comfortable with it and I am improving. It is so convenient to be able to pick it up and put it where you want it.
The quality is excellent. It took a few tries to blow it up and get the plug in the hole as fast as possible, but I succeeded.
I love my Bosu. It is exactly what I had wanted.

My trainer has me using one at the gym. I decided to get one for the house. Everyone uses it. Very good for maintaining balance and fast twitch muscle tone which is important for us "over 50's" to maintain our balance and core strength.
