HOT Health Fitness G... | | Home » | | | | | | Colors: | | | | | Description: | | Isokinetics Ball Chairs are the same chairs sold by others, only at a manufacturer direct price. No middleman means no need to pay more! And, we provide all of our chairs with a 1 year guarantee. As an additional bonus, we provide an exclusive exercise ball measuring tape that takes the guesswork out of inflating your ball. Sitting on an exercise ball while at home or work promotes flexibility, coordination, motor skills, core strengthening, and balance. Your body, when positioned on top of an exercise ball, is constantly making small adjustments, often imperceptible, to remain balanced and thus is constantly exercising a large group of muscles in doing so. By strengthening your body's core muscle group you help improve your posture, have better balance and guard against back injuries. It may take time before your body becomes accustom to sitting on an exercise ball, since your core muscles may not have gotten much exercise previously. Start by using it 10 to 15 minutes a day and gradually work your way up. If you have had back problems or injuries, make sure to consult your physician or therapist first. Note: We provide a small pump for free for you to have a way to inflate your ball. However, exercise balls require a lot of air and it will take a lot of pumping with the free pump. So, you may want to consider purchasing at this time a high volume air pump, especially if you use exercise balls a lot or have other things you often inflate, like pool toys or air mattresses. | | | Features: | |

 cheap constructionSep 09, 2008
Chair locks fall down and lock the front wheels at whim. Bar that holds the ball has bolt that extends and has scratched my ankle. Light-weight. Not adjustable in height and too tall for 5'3" person. A disappointment at the price.
 Fixed or FreeSep 06, 2008
The Isokinetics Balance Ball chair is a great alternative to the traditional office chair, and also provides a fixed base for a variety of fitness ball exercises. The ball is easily removable for use by itself, or utilize the locking castors to hold the chair in place when you need more stability.

 Ball chairAug 31, 2008
The Isokinetics Balance Ball Chair has enormously improved my quality of life. It is my work chair, and as a Dental Hygienist, ergonomics dictates both the duration of my career and my quality of life now and in the future. The chair is fabulous!

Surprisingly ComfortableAug 20, 2008
I and 3 of the girls that work for me got one of these "chairs". Two of us had been using a regular exercise ball, but due to the fact we are up and down alot during the day we decided to try the ones that are on casters. The "chairs" arrived sooner than expected and were easy to set up...well, except for the air pump, it was cheesy. We used a better pump we had on hand. The only problem I could state is the fact that the brakes on the casters will lock on their own, but it hasn't been a huge problem.
As far as the total experience of sitting on the ball chair all day at work, getting up and down and moving from the keyboard to the file drawer without having to get up (as I had to do with the regular exercise ball) it is a great chair! The exercise ball by itself took concentration and it was not good to wear a skirt or dress while sitting on it. With the casters it's no problem to wear a dress.
One of the girls had been using the Wii Fit Board prior to sitting on this chair. After about a week or so her fitness scores went up on the Wii; for better balance and core fitness. All of us have noticed better posture since using the ball chair. It is possible to slouch while sitting on it, but it is not comfortable to slouch. For some reason it is just more comfortable to sit up straight.
One of the girls had been having minor back pain and she said she hasn't had it since using the ball chair.
We do get allot of comments from customers about how weird or funny it looks, but it has not deterred any of us to go back to a regular chair. It just gives us a chance to applaud the attributes of how much better our balance, posture and core fitness is and tell them "We are always on the ball".
Of the four of us that bought the chair, we all like it 100% and have not gone back to the regular chairs provided to us by the county. We have all been using the Balance Ball Chair since the day we got them, 1 1/2 months ago.

Rolling AlongJun 18, 2008
This chair at first looks very intimidating, but once you get the knack of staying on it you can feel a change in your posture. I had read to gradually spend time sitting on it and that is good advice. I really like the chair now and it is a great conversation piece!
