Description of BodyTrends 60/65cm Anti-Burst Blue Exercise Ball and Faster Blaster Pump
A primary benefit of exercising with a Bodytrends exercise ball as opposed to exercising directly on a hard flat surface is that the body responds to the instability of the ball to remain balanced, engaging many more muscles to do so. Those muscles become stronger over time to keep balance. Most frequently, the core body muscles - the abdominal muscles and back muscles - are the focus of exercise ball fitness programs. Using a Bodytrends exercise ball as part of a fitness program can include a wide range of difficulty levels, each requiring support from the back and stomach muscles that help firm up the trunk muscles in the body. Exercise balls are commonly used as part of a physical therapy program for individuals with low back pain. Whether you are new to fitness or a seasoned athlete, this ball will enhance your workout giving you results. Ideal for stretching, strengthening and toning exercises. First used by physical therapists over 30 years ago, exercise balls are now used in leading health clubs around the nation and are quickly becoming a standard item for any home gym. The BodyTrends Anti-Burst Fitness Ball is safe, durable and easy-to-use.Sports reviews of BodyTrends 60/65cm Anti-Burst Blue Exercise Ball and Faster Blaster Pump
Customer Review: Body Trends 55cm exercise ball with pump
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
The pump supplied with the ball was next to useless. The plastic valve supplied to pump up the ball was designed to screw into the pump. I was never able to get the connection tight - the valve just kept turning in the pump. The pump delivered very little air with each pump stroke, and my arms were exhausted before I could get the ball pumped up. Once the ball was partly inflated air leaked out of the top of the pump, and it was necessary to pump very fast in order to get more air into the ball. I managed to borrow a better pump from a friend and was able to inflate the ball further. However, I was never able to inflaate the ball to 55 cm. The fully inflated ball was much smaller than at least three other exercise balls claiming to be 55 cm. I would not recommend this product at all.Customer Review: 65cm ball with pump
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
The ball is alot smaller than 65cm, which should be about 26"... it's more like 20". I noticed other customers had similar sizing problems with these. & as stated by others, YES, the pump is useless. the one attachment that screws in either breaks right away or keeps falling out. & there's no way to adequately fill the ball with enough air since it starts leaking from the pump device itself once you get it closer to being filled & the pressure of the air forces it back to the pump. I'm giving this ball away... hoping someone ALOT shorter than 5'7" can get some use out of it. The material the ball is made of seems durable, so if you're looking to buy this one, get a size up & invest in a decent pump. The 65cm ball would probably work best for someone less than 5'6" tall.Customer Review: Ha! The DVD calls for and states that it comes with

This ball was VERY small and very poor quality. Pump is a piece of junk and very cheap. Don't waste your money on this ball.
