Product Description

A primary benefit of exercising with a Bodytrends exercise ball as opposed to exercising directly on a hard flat surface is that the body responds to the instability of the ball to remain balanced, engaging many more muscles to do so. Those muscles become stronger over time to keep balance. Most frequently, the core body muscles - the abdominal muscles and back muscles - are the focus of exercise ball fitness programs. Using a Bodytrends exercise ball as part of a fitness program can include a wide range of difficulty levels, each requiring support from the back and stomach muscles that help firm up the trunk muscles in the body. Exercise balls are commonly used as part of a physical therapy program for individuals with low back pain. Whether you are new to fitness or a seasoned athlete, this ball will enhance your workout giving you results. Ideal for stretching, strengthening and toning exercises. First used by physical therapists over 30 years ago, exercise balls are now used in leading health clubs around the nation and are quickly becoming a standard item for any home gym. The BodyTrends Anti-Burst Fitness Ball is safe, durable and easy-to-use.

65cm ball with pump
The ball is alot smaller than 65cm, which should be about 26"... it's more like 20". I noticed other customers had similar sizing problems with these. & as stated by others, YES, the pump is useless. the one attachment that screws in either breaks right away or keeps falling out. & there's no way to adequately fill the ball with enough air since it starts leaking from the pump device itself once you get it closer to being filled & the pressure of the air forces it back to the pump. I'm giving this ball away... hoping someone ALOT shorter than 5'7" can get some use out of it. The material the ball is made of seems durable, so if you're looking to buy this one, get a size up & invest in a decent pump. The 65cm ball would probably work best for someone less than 5'6" tall.

My order of the Excerise Ball from Bodytrends
I ordered a 55cm anti-burst blue excerise ball with dual action pump so anyways it was not what I expected to get at all it was to small and the plug was broken when I recived it, I left a negative review and then Body trends called me the next day telling me that if I removed my Negative feed back they would send me a new correct size ball at no cost and free shipping I removed my feedback and Im still waiting to recive my new ball, But If they actully do send me the correct ball Id say they have out standing service A+ ! If I dont recive it then lets just say I'll keep you updated! Thanks Redckittie@mail.com

This ball does its job. The only complaint I have is that you have to keep adding air. It doesn't stay tight. I use it daily so maybe it is normal wear and tear for these balls. It has stood up to my three-year old son who gives it a run for its money. That says a lot for me. I would say this is a good value for both ball and pump. I have even used my pump for other things. The plastic tip screws on and off and you can put on other valves.
