5.0 out of 5 stars Very Durable Stability Ball ..., January 11, 2007

By	mom2boyz - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: GoFit Ultimate Burst Resistant Core Stability Ball with Workout DVD (65 cm) (Sports)

I purchased 2 GoFit Ultimate Burst Resistant Core Stability Balls w/DVD (orange 55cm and purple 65cm) over a year ago from Amazon (on sale). The ball is a very durable, good quality ball (no foul smells or sticky surfaces like some other stability balls). I haven't had any problems with the ball in over a year of constant use. I have had to occasionally add air to keep the ball at the appropriate size (but nothing out of the ordinary).

This package comes with the ball, pump and workout DVD. I didn't even attempt to use the cheap manual pump included, but opted to use my husband's automatic pump, which quickly and easily inflated the ball to the desired size without any effort. The workout DVD is that in name only. It has some good exercise ideas, but if you are looking for a stability ball workout, you will probably want to buy a separate "true" stability ball workout DVD. [..]

As a side note ...

When determining what size stability ball to purchase, leg length (not height) is what ultimately dictates the size ball you need. If you know you have shorter or longer legs for your height, then you may need to get a smaller or larger ball than the standard height charts for stability balls.

For those of you who are unsure of how much to inflate your stability ball, here are some helpful guidelines taken from the fitnesource site ... On a wall, measure 55cm, 65cm or 75cm (depending on the ball size you have) from the floor and mark it with a pencil. Then inflate the ball until it feels/looks "full", but is not hard and still has a little bit of give in it when you press on it. Put the ball close to the mark you made on the wall and then place a ruler on top of the ball so that it touches the top of the ball and the mark on the wall. This will tell you how close you are to the maximum inflation for your ball size. If this is the first time you are inflating the ball, while it might seem full, it might still measure small. If this happens, give the ball a day to "stretch out" and then add some additional air, if needed. If you don't want to do all that, they also sell tape measures specifically for measuring the diameter of stability balls. Just keep in mind, that when you sit on the ball with your feet flat on the ground and knees bent, your knees should be level with or slightly lower than your hips (a 90 degree angle).

4.0 out of 5 stars Great ball, July 10, 2006

By	nycgirl (nyc) - See all my reviews

This review is from: GoFit Ultimate Burst Resistant Core Stability Ball with Workout DVD (65 cm) (Sports)

Most of these exercise balls are all the same, but I found this one to be a pretty good quality piece of equipment. It was easy to inflate and, beyond that, it was easy to inflate to full capacity. It's so annoying when you can't inflate balls all the way and they sag when you use them.

Price is a little high on this one, but it's worth it for the most part.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS SAVED MY BACK!!, June 27, 2007

By	rossetti_stunner (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews

This review is from: GoFit Ultimate Burst Resistant Core Stability Ball with Workout DVD (65 cm) (Sports)

I was about to have spinal fusion back surgery...and walked with a limp--but using the exercise ball helped me strengthen my back and my core and now, a year later..I feel virtually no pain and have forgotten this horrible time in my life.

The key is to USE THE BALL! :) and To use it several times a week. And then watch your core become strong!
