The Bosu is a simple yet challenging piece of exercise equipment. Standing on the Bosu forces you to engage core muscles for stability, strengthening the body and improving balance. Weight training exercises using the Bosu increase muscle engagement, helping build strength faster. It forces you to maintain your center of gravity, improving balance, toning your body for daily activities, and preventing injury. Yoga poses become more challenging with the Bosu, and it improves flexibility. Incorporate it into plyometric drills for explosive power, quickness, and acceleration—ideal for sports like tennis, football, basketball, and skiing. Made of latex-free, burst-resistant material, the Bosu can hold up to 300 pounds. It comes with a hand pump and downloadable Dvd workout set, making it perfect for home use. Bring the original Bosu Balance Trainer home and improve strength, balance, flexibility, and sports skills.
