Everyone knows them – those big fitness balls (also called exercise balls or gym balls) you see in gyms and physiotherapy practices. But what can you actually do with them? In the past, fitness balls were mainly used by physiotherapists for muscle recovery or mobility training. Nowadays, you’ll find them in almost every gym, and increasingly at home or at work. It makes sense: what could be easier than doing a few exercises and then placing the ball back in the corner? Inflate the ball once with the included pump, and you can use it endlessly. The VirtuFit exercise balls are designed to handle heavy and intensive use and are versatile for various fitness purposes. Think of exercises for strength, balance, flexibility, and stability, focusing on, among others, the abdominal and back muscles. You can even use them to release stress and tension.
Benefits of an exercise ball
In addition to training your abs and back, the exercise ball offers many more benefits. For example, you can use it during rehabilitation or even as an office chair. Especially for back problems or during pregnancy, this is a pleasant solution. The exercise ball promotes a better sitting posture and feels more comfortable than a standard chair. When rebuilding strength after a longer inactive period, the exercise ball is also a smart choice.
The exercise balls are available in different sizes and made of high-quality materials. They are constructed from strong anti-burst material, support up to 200 kg, and have a long lifespan. Moreover, they are free from harmful substances. That’s why all VirtuFit fitness and exercise balls come with a standard two-year warranty. To achieve the best results, it is important to choose the size that matches your body height.
Below you can see which size matches your height:
-
Height up to 155 cm – diameter 45 cm
- Height 155–165 cm – diameter 55 cm
- Height 166–178 cm – diameter 65 cm
- Height 179–190 cm – diameter 75 cm
- Height over 190 cm – diameter 85 cm
Note: the VirtuFit Anti-Burst Fitness Ball Pro needs to be inflated several times after the first inflation to finally reach the correct size.
