How To Choose a Suitable Exercise Ball

Exercise balls are also called yoga balls, stability balls, Swiss balls, or birthing balls. A suitable exercise ball can exercise the core strength of the waist and abdomen, make the abdomen stronger, and also train balance and body coordination, which can be said to have many benefits. So how to choose a suitable exercise ball for us?

First, we have to choose a suitable size exercise ball.

Usually, when we choose a Suitable Exercise Ball, we choose the size of the yoga ball according to the individual figure.

1. It is recommended to choose a yoga ball with a diameter of 55cm exercise ball for a height of 150-160cm.

2. Choose a yoga ball with a diameter of 65cm exercise ball for a height of 160 – 170cm.

3. Choose a yoga ball with a diameter of 75cm exercise ball for a height of 170 – 180cm.

4. It is recommended to choose a yoga ball with a diameter of 85cm ercecise ball for those above 180cm in height.

Second, there are so many exercise balls on the market, which one is more reliable?

In addition to the choice of size, the more important point is to choose a sturdy and durable fitness ball produced by a regular manufacturer, which is very elastic and has full safety when we want to choose a suitable exercise ball?

Usually, it depends on whether the material of the yoga ball is safe and non-toxic, and we can identify it by smell. Those using high-quality raw materials have no peculiar smell, and those using inferior and toxic raw materials will have a pungent plastic smell and must not be purchased.

Trideer exercise ball is made of thickened matte material and is explosion-proof and safe. It is the best choice for yoga lovers.

Third, how to choose a exercise ball with the best material?

Now there are two kinds of exercise balls on the market, explosion-proof material and pearlescent material.

The explosion-proof exercise ball is made of high-grade explosion-proof material, which is as soft as a sponge. At the same time, it has the compression resistance and flexibility like a tire and high elasticity like a spring. It can generally bear a weight of about 400 catties, which is safe and secure.

The surface of the pearlescent yoga ball is very smooth and has good reflectivity, but in terms of technology, only some pearlescent powder is added to it, and the thickness is a little thinner than that of the explosion-proof material.

Therefore, I highly recommend explosion-proof balls. The most obvious feature of explosion-proof balls is that there are small explosion-proof air bubbles. If you look closely, there will be some fine particles on the surface of the ball. I am currently using the well-reputed Trideer yoga ball.

In addition, when choosing a exercise ball, you can look at the feel of the yoga ball. The surface of the fitness ball should be delicate, soft and highly elastic. The better the hand feel, the better the foaming technology of the production process, and the smaller the foaming technology, the softer and more delicate the surface of the fitness ball.
