Product Of The Month: The Bosu Balance Trainer  You've probably seen it in the gym. You might have even jumped on it trying to figure out what the heck to do with it. But what exactly is The Bosu Trainer? And what the benefits are of using it? The Bosu (which is an acronym for Both Sides Up) was developed by trainer and international presenter, David Weck. David wanted to find a way to make balance/unstability training easier and excessible to lots of folks, so he cut a conventional stability ball in half and added a 25-inch platform and -- voila!! The Bosu was born. As its name implies, The Bosu can be used with the flat side or round side on the floor, providing more or less challenge to many different exercises. The Bosu is used by trainers to challenge their clients' stability and proprioception, to increase the activation of their core musculature, to force the body into integrated total body movements and to provide increased stabilization of major joints. One of the best things about The Bosu is that when using it many basic exercises which normally involve a relatively small amount of muscle activation (such as bicep curls) can instantly be transformed into full-body exercises using virtually every muscle in the body. The Bosu can be used for exercises done with two feet on the floor (such as squats), single-leg exercises (such as lunges), push-up, abdominal exercises and lower back exercise. Best of all the Bosu is relatively small, can be stored easily in a corner, under the bed or in a closet. Using just dumbbells and your own body weight, you can have a multitude of fun and effective exercise at your disposal with just one simple, affordable peice of equipment. Perform Better's Bosu package includes your choice of one of four Bosu Training videos. Don't see what you're looking for? Click the banner below to brouse the entire Perform Better Catalog.
