This is a good little exercise ball! I'm a bigger person, so I was worried it wouldn't hold up with me lol – but I've been using it weekly and it has held up great! It's super lightweight and it is small- not one of those large exercise balls (like the one that Jim popped when Dwight was sitting on it at his desk – IYKYK 😉
It's perfect for using under your low back or between your knees for floor ab exercises, and also lightweight enough to hold/extend out in front of you for similar exercises. It's not a weighted ball by any means – it's inflatable (straw included) and meant to be light and airy. Super easy to inflate, only took me a few breaths. Just gotta be quick to put the plug back in lol! But I don't think you want it 100% inflated to the max, as that could create too much pressure and pop it (I think? trying to remember from my old gym days lol), so it's okay that it's slightly under-inflated (is there a word for that? lol)
The ball itself is very soft/pliable, and easy on the skin. No roughness or scratchiness whatsoever (also good news for our yoga pants lol!). It's comfortable to use and lean back on.
Honestly, I have no complaints. I'm happy with this so far! It's a great deal for the price (currently listed at $5.94 USD- I think it's dropped a few dollars since I ordered it – even better!) and is perfect for those looking to improve their home workouts without breaking the bank.
There are lots of ways to use this ball – Google is a better teacher for that than I am lol, but it's definitely worth adding to your workouts, in my opinion! It's small but strong.
I'll update this review if anything changes… (aka if I pop the ball lol). But for now I'm really happy with how it's performing! 🙂
