Why the BOSU rocks!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUZLTlm3he4

Yes, the moves in this video are highly advanced but it shows the endless versatility of the BOSU! Stop looking at that blue "half-ball" in the corner of your gym, grab it, and start experimenting! Make sure you are comfortable standing on both sides before trying to add weights, squats, jumps, etc. The BOSU will challenge your body in a whole new way!

We all lose our ability to balance as we age; why not put that off as long as we can? The BOSU puts us in an unstable environment and makes our often under-used stabilizer muscles work hard to keep us upright. Stronger stabilizer and core muscles lead to the "deep" strength we need to support our bones and joints. Add the BOSU to at least one exercise each time you workout and start to see the results of improved balance and strength immediatley!
