Exercise balls and sitting balls

Exercise dynamically and flexibly with the exercise ball

The exercise ball, also known as a sitting ball or fitness ball, is ideal for training the core and back muscles as well as for relieving strain and promoting healthy sitting in the office, at school or at home

The use of exercise balls and sitting balls

Exercise balls are mainly used in gymnastics and back training. The training exercises can be done on the back, stomach, sitting or kneeling. The fitness ball gives you the opportunity to perform many different gymnastics exercises to strengthen your back, buttocks, leg, arm and abdominal muscles. You can also use training accessories such as dumbbells or weights to intensify or vary your workout.

Sit healthily with a sitting ball

Sitting balls are large exercise balls. Dynamic sitting promotes concentration and therefore performance. The natural alignment of the spine relieves pressure on the intervertebral discs and back and promotes correct posture. The light movements of the fitness ball and the alternating sitting position constantly challenge your muscles to balance and equalise, strengthening them at the same time.

What you should consider when buying a sitting ball

If you want to buy an exercise ball for sitting, you should not only choose the the right size also pay attention to the load capacity. If you also use the sitting ball for training or gymnastics, we recommend that you look out for a higher load capacity.
