Amazon.com Product Description
Appropriate for everyone from elite athletes to kids to weekend warriors trying to stay in shape, the Bosu balance trainer helps you strengthen and coordinate several major muscle groups, including the muscles you don't see. The Bosu targets your core muscles--the muscles around your abdominal and back area--while you perform a host of different workouts, from squats and bicep curls to lateral shoulder raises and hip extensions. As a result, you not only gain strength, trim, and tone, but also improve your balance and coordination along the way. In addition, Bosu training helps strengthen the mind, with thoughtful movement that requires the participant to not only be physically involved, but also "here and present" with the mind fully engaged. By combining physical and mental focus, Bosu training will boost your performance across a wide continuum of activities, including sports, recreation, and daily tasks.
The Bosu home trainer comes with a workout series on a single DVD to help get you fit, along with a foot pump and exercise manual. The DVD workout series starts with the Calorie Combustion Workout, which combines step routines with sport-specific moves to get your heart rate up and your muscles challenged. The Long & Lean Workout follows a different formula, with master trainer Chalene Johnson leading you through Pilates-inspired movements that emphasize total body toning, so you feel stronger, taller, and younger. Finally, the Absolutely Abs Workout concludes the Bosu package. In this final workout, master motivator Greg Cook unlocks the Bosu dynamics to maximize your range of motion and take your ab workouts to the next level.
Product Description
Based on the science of neuromuscular physiology, the Bosu Home Balance Trainer uses familiar exercises—such as leg raises, lunges, abdominal crunches, push-ups and stretches—but forces you to move with control on an ever-changing surface. The Bosu Home is an inflated, thick rubber dome on a flat, 25" round platform—just like the version you use at the gym. It can be used with the platform side either up or down for different types of balance challenge. Two recessed handles on the bottom make it easy to carry. Perfect for sport-specific training, it literally keeps all the muscles in the body activated as it tones, offering a dynamic workout unlike any other. Includes a total body workout video with aerobic and strength training routines, stretching and flexibility exercises, and balance training. Also includes step pump for inflating and Fitness Quest Eating Plan. Not for commercial use. Warranty void if used commercially. 10Hx25" dia.
