I think this book should be on everyones desk at the office

People are becoming increasingly busy these days and this

book helps you stay active even at work

So you no longer have any excuses to not be strong and healthy

I also like the layout of the book and the fun pictures

to demonstrate the different exercises

Great book. The exercises and fitness information are topnotch. They're presented in a really fun and funny way. The book's easy to use and it's fun to dip into here and there and try something out. If you're not sitting on a ball yet, get this book and revamp your life. If you are sitting on a ball, then get the book and add some great fitness activities to your work day.

I was just sitting and bouncing on my inflatable ball at work and wanted to do more with it. This book is exactly what I needed, in a way that others were not.

Most exercise books really aren't conducive to exercise, because you can't read them while you're in position, the pictures aren't clear, the book is boring, etc. Working on the Ball puts those other books to shame. It's got amusing, friendly text and helpful, deliberately humorous photos. Even the book itself is handy, as it's small and hardback.

Concise, easy to read and fits the time short generation that would like to be in better shape, and now can get fit while you work. Fun and intelligent language, well laid out and a handy size pocket reference to keep you on track.

Working on the Ball is an excellent guide to fitness, primarily for those of us who sit at a desk for long periods. I have been using this book for about a month as of writing this, and I have been pretty satisfied with my results. It's somewhat clear that women are the intended audience, though looking past that is easy, and the exercises are no less applicable to a man. The book itself is written in an engaging fashion, with (sometimes humorous) photos to illustrate the techniques. My only complaint is that a couple of the descriptions and photos do not seem to tell me enough to reproduce the exercise, though overall, I feel good about recommending this book. Definitely consider this if you do not otherwise exercise and sit at a desk for extended periods.

I bought the Isokinetics Ball Chair for work and the excercise ball comes out easily for me to follow some of the routines in this book. It is definitely a good book.

Very useful tool but it was not so clear to me the very specific application is in an office enviroment. After I read it I understood the specificity of the book
