BOSUBalance Pods

I love love love these mini bosus. I am recovering from a L hip injury with a possible hip replacement in the future and a R ankle fusion. The mini bosus have become my go to props. You can work barefoot or with fitness shoes. Developing better balance, lowering risk of falls, and building overall functional strength is so dependent on using unstable surfaces. You can stand on them at three different foot placements which will help build hip and postural strength and organization. The minis can be placed side by side and staggered for increase gait and balance challenge. You can do double leg stance, single leg stance, squats, lunges, add torso rotation and head turns to increase balance skills. You can increase shoulder stability and add balance challenge with hands on these minis. If wrists don't tolerate a lot of load on the minis put your forearms ontop of each bosu. If you have two pairs put each pair in a row and rest your forearms on them. You can even put them up against a wall for less load on the upper body. You can find a flat seated chair and sit on them and do marches, torso rotation while keeping sitz bones equally weighted on the minis. The list goes on! Excellent for the osteoporotic population, too.

I use these at a standing desk for help working on balance. They hold up well and don’t need much additional air. I would recommend.

I do some daily planking. I was looking for something to add a little softness to my forearms/elbows, but also perhaps help increase my core stability. I saw these and they are PERFECT. there are a crazy number of ways to use them. I have not tried them. But a great inexpensive addition to some home fitnessPros:- they come inflated- great companion for a bosu- I use for planking. Easier on the forearms, but causes you to work your stabilityCons:- they have a couple of colors, more would be better

I was sent pink instead of blue

I was worried to get these because all the bad reviews saying they got damaged items or pink instead of blue. I got exactly what I ordered and they are great! I have the large BOSU ball and love it, so these sparked my interest. So nice to workout with and add an extra challenge. I think these would also be good to use at my standing desk to stand on.

Helps you build balance. Well made. Stable (no skidding) on floor.

If I could give them a higher rating, I would! I normally don't give reviews, but these were a complete game-changer. I had carpal tunnel surgery at the beginning of July, and doing exercises that required me to use the palm of my hand (planks, pushups, downward dog, etc.) was killing me. Someone in a workout group told me about these. I was amazed at how much they helped and absolutely no pain! I am so happy I purchased them.

The product is fine, except it's not the color advertised. I saw someone else had said the same thing and assumed their experience was a fluke. Nope. It clearly says blue in the headline and in the description, but that is not what was shipped to me either.
