I bought this to strengthen my core because I get severe back pain. It helped a lot and this is a great quality product! I have recommended it to others who have back or knee pain and they love it too.Customer Review: A new toy

If you know what to do with these wobble boards, you know what a challenge they are. Practice makes perfect- strengthen your abs, legs and everything in between. Great price here on Amazon!Customer Review: Good tool for improving ankle range of motion and stability
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
I first used a wobble board during physical therapy (post ankle surgery), and it was one of the most challenging but effective tools for me to gradually regain range of motion and stabiity. With the help of a good ankle guard (i.e. Active Ankle) I have been able to resume playing sports and avoid re-injury for over 3 years. However, since I can't wear the ankle guard with dress/business shoes, I have had some close calls.
I have decided to try the wobble board again, since it work well the first time. However, the PT version is quite expensive, so I bought the Go Fit model. I was able to play the DVD, so perhaps Go Fit has fixed the compatibility problem? It was also nice to find some of the same exercises I had learned at PT in the accompanying instructional DVD.
A word of warning... The instructor on the DVD is a bit dull, and the demonstrations are quite brief. Be prepared to hit "replay" or "pause" if you wish to work both sides of your body. On the positive side, neither the instructor nor the model tried to portray the exercises as "easy". Be prepared to work but it's probably best to start slow.
Customer Review: wobbles to AND fro
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
Wobbles just fine, dvd showed a number of ways to use it.
This is more of a balance board, for toning and working muscles if you ski, snow/skate board.
We purchased to use to help strengthen an ankle after a injury. Had been using one borrowed from someone. The one we borrowed had a much higher 'ball' underneath, making much more of an angle for rotating better.
When researching these, we found that they mostly just gave the diameter of the platform you stand on, most didn't mention how high it stood off the ground which makes a big difference.
Customer Review: Quality board, Does not have any adjustment
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
Wobble board shipped quickly and is sturdy construction. My only disappointment is the board does not have an angle adjustment. If you want more to progress to more advanced balancing, it is useful to have a borad that adjusts.
