For a few weeks now we have been using a new CANADIAN product called the GREENlife Eco- Friendly Exercise Balls. We LOVE using stability balls in almost all of our workouts. The GREENlife balls work great and as an added bonus, they are PVC free. This means that they are more environmentally friendly and less abrasive or irritating to those with skin sensitivities.
The balls take a little getting used to as they are a bit more "stiff" in feel (the PVC is what makes rubber pliable) then the other balls that we have been using. The stiffness gives you a little more of a stable feel as you pump them with more air.
We used them in a class setting today and everyone had a fantastic workout. It is amazing how much work you can do with a simple tool like a stability ball.
Here is the workout that we did which hit ALL major muscle groups.
Wall Squats
Crunches
Pushups
Back Extensions
Rollouts for the Lats and Abs
Lower Back Extensions
Jacknifes
Abdominal Ball "Passes"
Tough.... but effective. You can check out GREENlife here: http://www.GreenLifeBall.ca
