You've probably seen a BOSU exercise ball at the gym. It's that piece of equipment hanging out by the free weights that looks like half of an inflated beach ball about two feet in diameter attached to a flat disc. You know the one. But do you know what to do with it? Have you ever incorporated a BOSU ball into your workout? The BOSU ball is actually one of the more versatile items in the gym. This one apparatus can train the upper body, lower body, core, balance and stability, and it even provides a great cardio option if you know how to use it to get your heart rate up. When you're traveling, if all the meager hotel gym has is a BOSU ball and a mat, it's easy to devise a total body workout that will have you sweating. Get started with this list of 12 simple exercises you can do with just a BOSU ball and your body weight, plus variations to make them easier or more challenging according to your fitness level. As always, check with your physician if you have concerns about starting a new exercise program. Folks who struggle with their balance may want to ask a trainer or coach to help get them started. 12 BOSU Ball Exercises These are roughly broken down into core exercises, upper body exercises, lower body exercises, and "cardio." The beauty of the BOSU ball, though, is that every exercise is really a full-body exercise. The BOSU's instability (I believe "wobbliness" is the technical term) means that muscles throughout your body are called upon to stabilize and help you hold each position. Make sure to keep your core contracted throughout each of these exercises. Each exercise has a suggested time or rep range that constitutes one set. Adjust these to your capabilities. Options for using these exercises to create a whole body workout are in the next section. Note: "Platform side down" means the flat side of the BOSU is on the ground, dome (ball) facing up. "Platform side up" means the dome side is down, flat side facing up. The BOSU is obviously more stable when the platform is on the ground, making exercises easier. Be advised that the BOSU ball has a weight limit of 300 to 350 pounds (136 to 159 kg), depending on the model. Core exercises BOSU BALL PLANK Place the BOSU platform side down. Put your elbows on top of the ball at approximately shoulder width. Keep your shoulders directly over elbows as you walk your feet back until you are in a plank position with core contracted. Hold for 30 to 60 seconds. Variations: If this is too difficult, place your knees on the ground. Place your hands on the ball instead of elbows. To make it harder, alternate lifting one foot at a time off the ground. For an advanced version, turn the BOSU over so its platform side up. (See push-up section below for position.) BOSU BALL SIDE … Continue reading "How to Work Out with a BOSU Exercise Ball"
