AW 75CM YOGA BALL

Bought this for pregnancy to help with exercises etc. I started sitting/bouncing on it regularly at 38 weeks and 2 days later my water broke! And afterwards it has been a lifesaver when our baby won’t calm down, we can bounce with him on here and he almost instantly calms.

I recently received the Athletic Works 75cm Fitness Ball and really like it! The ball came with a foot pump and a tip to blow up the ball. Although the pump worked well, it did take a while to blow up the ball and was somewhat of a workout. That being said, after numerous uses, the ball has been holding air well. The fitness ball is made of heavy rubber and has nubs for non slip exercise use. There are also pictures of some of the various exercise ideas embossed on the ball which is helpful. I have started to incorporate these exercises into my yoga routine and find some of them to be quite a challenge, but look forward to getting better at them! I feel like doing yoga with the fitness ball has helping strengthen my core and flexibility. I also started using the ball as a seat for my upper body weight exercises which works out my core and legs as well as my arms while using the weights! It does take a little while and some practice for a beginner to get used to using the ball without rolling off, but gets easier as you practice. In addition to using the ball for exercise, I use it as a seat while doing work at my desk to help strengthen my abs instead of just sitting in my chair! I recommend this fitness ball to anyone looking to incorporate new ways to work out!

The Athletic Works 75 cm Yoga Ball is made of a very thick rubber and feels to be very sturdy and well made. It has diagrams of the different poses on the ball. That is very handy. I am extremely impressed with the ball! The pump, on the other hand, is very disappointing. When trying to use the pump, the hose continuously pops off. I tried several times to use it to pump with my foot, but it kept popping apart. I finally used my hand to pump it up. I still had the same issue, but it wasnt as bad. I am extremely pleased with the quality of the ball, but wish the pump was better.

I really love this yoga ball. It's nice and heavy and will not burst, plus it has pictures of exercises you can do right on the ball. I have to admit though that it took just a bit of figuring out how to blow it up with the included pump. They need to include some pump instructions. The pump hose wouldn't fit onto the attachment coming out of the foot pump, so I took the attachment out of the pump and just put the hose into the hole. That worked fine. Also, the other end of the hose had the pointed part that is inserted into the ball, but it wouldn't fit. Attached to the first insert is a smaller insert. I put the smaller one over the other one, and that fit into the ball. You'll understand when you see it. Have some help for the foot pump. It takes a while to blow it up, and gets tiresome. I just kept switching legs. Then there was the plug to plug into the ball after it was blown up. It seems to be sealing it well.

Nice material. Had to have my husband help me inflate it with the hand pump and measuring to go faster, but you can definitely put this together by yourself. GET A CLOTHING MEASURING TAPE. You'll need it to measure the circumference of the ball as you inflate it. Remember not to over inflate. Perfect for my Pelvic Floor Therepy Excersices.

The ball is perfect , I am 5 ft 8in and the ball is 65 cm . I inflated it to 75in diameter ( they say 65cm is 80in or 204 cm but I didnt inflate it all the way. I am pregnant and weight right now 210 pounds and it holds my bouncing and moving and shaking. The ball has helped stretch my hips and without realizing you sit on it and you begin to perspire. I even stretch my back on it so it takes a looooot of weight . I recommend

I am a certified person fitness instructor. I like exercise balls for abdominal exercises,balance and stretching. I think they can make exercise fun and there are alot of things you can do with them. I like the larger balls because when they flatten they give a wider base.

Amazing results. I feel the muscles in my legs and it only been a few days. Now I just have to find a way to keep my 4 year old off. She thinks it's a toy. Easy to inflate.

Athletic Works 75 cm Anti-burst Exercise Yoga Ball with Pump The Athletic Works 75 cm Anti-burst Exercise Yoga Ball with Pump comes with an air pump and included exercise guide. This review is part if the Walmart Spark Review. I've had it for one week. The specification features include anti-burst, high quality, slip-resistant material. The weight limit is 250 pounds. The color is dark gray and the assembled product dimensions are 5.2 X 7.85 X 9.35 inches. Choosing the right sized ball is dependent on personal height. The Athletic Works yoga balls come in 55 cm. recommended for individuals 4'11" to 5'4"; 65 cm. 5'5" to 5'11"; and 75 cm. 5'10" to 6'3". Inflated the balls will be approximately 18" (55 cm.); 22" (65 cm.) and 26" (75 cm.) Athletes use the anti-burst balls in training to develop balance and stability. According to the recommended ball size, I should have tried the smallest ball, 55 cm. I received the 75 cm. I was able to sit on the ball and balance. I tried sitting on it for just a few minutes. I did not attempt the standing exercises in the exercise guide. I felt unsure with the 75 cm. yoga ball. I did attempt exercises lying or sitting down. I was able to use the yoga ball to exercise the fingers and palms for strengths and the shoulders. I attempted the bouncing exercises with success. The inflating of the ball using the pump was sufficient for eighty percent of the total inflation. The ball had to rest for 24 hours. After the 24 hours, the last 20 per cent for full inflation was slow because the pump was weak and not able to overcome the pressure. Even though there is a warning against using a compressor to inflate the ball, we did use a compressor carefully and very slowly., an inch every 30 seconds to allow the ball to stretch. We continued to measure the ball as it was inflated for a final measurement of 26 inches.

Athletic Works 75cm anti burst exercise ball was purchased on 11/9/22 It was used daily by therapists to sit on while working on my son. It burst on 12/12/22 while in use by one of the therapists causing her injury. It was put up when not in use, not overinflated or misused, the therapists are not large people. It is listed as anti burst yet in just over a month that's exactly what it did! I definitely would NOT recommend this ball
