The Ballast Ball is similar to a swiss ball or fit ball with a few differences. It has dynamic weight inside which creates challenge to the abs and back allowing for more functional core training.
The weight also makes the ball more stable on the ground which is excellent for exercises where you want the ball in place for example in standing to seated exercises such as the squat to ab curl.
The shifting weight inside the ball allows for more challenging exercises. The shifting weight forces you to use your core and stabilizer muscles to keep the body static as the weight pulls you in the opposite direction.
Overall, the Ballast Ball is a great tool offering a unique way to work the core. The Ballast Ball gives workout variety with the ability to target the entire body including the hips, glutes, thighs, abs, back and arms!
