The Bosu Sport is a stability Ball with a flat bottom. Smaller and More Economical Versions of the Original Bosu Balance Trainer. Versatile! Improves balance, core stability and proprioception. With bubble side up, sit, stand, lie, kneel or jump. With platform side up, do push-ups or even stand on it for an advanced balance workout. Any exercise done on the ground can be performed on the BOSU making it more challenging and fun.

The BOSU Sport 45cm Balance Trainer is a good option if you're looking for a dynamic and affective way to exercise in almost any location. With a sleek, compact design, it is both easy to store and to travel with the BOSU Trainer. The solid platform is 25 inches in diameter, with two recessed handles on the bottom of the platform near the sides so that it is easy to turn the BOSU over or carry it. The blue dome is easily inflated using the included foot pump.

Developed from the combined fields of neuromuscular physiology, and balance and sports specific functional training, the BOSU creates a movement continuum from the easy to the challenging, and from static to fluid. An acronym for "both sides up", the BOSU Trainer provides different balance challenges depending on whether you use it platform side up or down. Regardless of how simple or complex your use of the BOSU Trainer is, this form of exercise will help everyone, from regular people to highly trained athletes, develop core strength, balance, and agility.

Great product at a fair price. I would suggest that you either buy 2 of the 45 cm Bosus OR buy one of the big 65 cm Bosu balls. It is about the same price either way. The little bosu balls are made from 1 piece so that there is no way they can break. The big ones can break if you are not carefull.

...the air pump! What a cheap piece of junk! The thing was so chinsey (sp.?) it fell apart immediately and I had to try and hold it together while I pumped the air--getting absolutely nowhere. Luckily I remembered I had a foot pump for a stability ball already and used that. Otherwise, it would take approximately 300 years to pump it up with the hand pump they enclosed! This little guy does everything the larger model does and is more compact and costs less. For home use it's perfect.

Smaller size is great. It's lighter, easier to move around and stores more easily. Works great for my Achilles therapy exercises. The only drawback is that the handpump nozzle keeps falling off, and I have to blow it up with the footpump from another piece of equipment that I already have.

While I imagine most folks use their Bosu Balance Trainers as part of a regular exercise program, I've actually started using mine as part of my daily work. As a theatrical designer, I spend a lot of time standing at a drafting table... now I spend that time atop either side of my Bosu Balance Trainer. It makes for a far more comfortable experience and works on my balance at the same time!

The Bosu ball has helped improve my balance, which has been deteriorating. The ball is easy to use and can be as basic or challenging as my abilities will allow.

My daughter was so impressed with my results that she bought one, too.
