Great ball,
By
This review is from: Bell Fitness Ergo Body Ball Kit (Sports)
My husband bought this ball for me as a mothers day present when I was 6 months pregnant. It was the only thing I could sit on comfortably with my off balanced condition. The oval shape is perfect for sitting on and bouncing. After baby was born it was even better than a rocking chair for putting the little one to sleep he loves it and it was also a great workout tool for getting back that pre-pregnancy figure. My only complaint is that the hand air pump is a little difficult to use and it takes a while to get it aired up your hand will get tired and you will need to take a break from pumping.

A Good Multitasking Tool for the Home Gym,

This review is from: Bell Fitness Ergo Body Ball Kit (Sports)
I gave up on going to gyms a few years ago in favor of a minimal basement setup of a few weights, a few dvds and a couple of mats. This way, working out can be fit in to the daily routine without driving out of the way and burning up a couple hours mainly because they are charging me $75 a month. I also didn't want to waste a couple thousand on unused equipment that takes over an entire room. What the ergo ball adds to my modest gym is the ability to do most stability/swiss/core workout ball exercises while its additional length allows me to use it like a weight bench for doing chest flys and dumbbell flys. Not that these couldn't be done on a swiss ball but the ergo ball is more stable than the swiss ball and therefore may be preferable for somebody less certain of their balance. A 30 minute CD of exercises is also included that shows typical exercises being performed on the ergo ball as well as the standard swiss/stability ball. For me, it is easier to use than a standard swiss ball, easier to hide in the closet and much easier to justify buying than a weight bench. The downside is that as far as I know, it only comes in one size and the current size may be a bit difficult for someone over 6' to use for bench-type exercises.

Not bad, but could be better constructed,

I like the shape of this ergonomic body ball and it is a good second body ball to a truly spherical one I already own. It does have a slight hourglass shape to conform to your body, which isn't apparent in the picture.
The downside is the construction and materials used to make this body ball. Unlike most body balls I have encountered or owned which have a roughened non-slip surface, this is a smoother material not unlike industrial dishwashing gloves or a rubber balloon. It still isn't slippery, but it is a bit different. Secondarily, the unit I received isn't evenly molded -- even when fully inflated it still has a few bumps and creases from the vinyl material being unevenly thick and thin in certain places. This is very evident when holding it up to the light, as I can see shadows and light spots from the uneven thickness of the material. I'm unsure if this will affect the longevity and durability of the ball. The nozzle of the pump was also broken when I received it. Regardless, the pump was very difficult to use and very slow. I ended up using the pump from my Valeo body ball to inflate this body ball. On a much less important note, the ball is what I would refer to as a hospital pale blue, a bit lighter than than what's pictured here. I'm not too much of a fashionista when it comes to color of equipment, but I can't help think of being in the hospital when using this ball.
