Hello Mfp I was just wondering, Have anyone tried doing excercise with the ball, and If so how was the result. I just bought me one today, Ive been reading all over fitness sites, that the ball its good for toning up, which I really want to do. Anyone tried the ball?

    u can incorporate the ball into almost any exercise, to work any body part....just about learning the exercises. it gives you an awesome core workout, even if you don't try to work out your abs!

    I had a couple of sessions with a personal trainer, and at my last one, she showed me quite a few exercises using a ball. They worked every muscle in my body & I was so sore afterwards! Even when you do upper body stuff, you use your legs and core to balance yourself, so you have to use all you muscles! I plan on getting one to use at home, but haven't gotten around to it yet. If you google exercise ball, you'll find lots of info. Have fun!
