Why Stability
Ball
The
stability ball was originally used in the 1960’s by physical therapists
and chiropractors as a rehabilitation tool. By the late 1980’s coaches,
athletic trainers and personal trainers realized the effectiveness of the
stability ball in developing correct posture, balance, and strength core
stability. Today the stability ball is one of the most widely used pieces
of fitness equipment in the world.
Stability
balls come in different shapes and sizes and there are several brands on
the market. Be sure to choose one that is ‘anti-burst or
‘burst-resistant’. This means that the ball is manufactured using a
strong and robust material that has been tested to at least 300 kg (47
stone).
