The gym ball, also sometimes known as an exercise ball, swiss ball, stability ball or fitness ball, is the most versatile exercise aid available. Easy to use anywhere, in the gym, at home or even in an office, its simplicity is its greatest strength. No complicated set-up, dangerous moving parts or parts which could break, and its low cost, these all make it the perfect workout tool for just about anyone regardless of age, stamina levels or experience.

Using a gym ball tones muscles in the whole body, improving flexibility, balance and posture through dozens of different exercises tailored to all levels of ability and movement. Whether you just want to improve your general fitness levels and tone your muscles in specific areas, use the gym ball as a part of Pilates sessions, give yourself a tough regime or use it as an effective warm-up before using other equipment, the Swiss ball is ideal. Additionally as a low-impact excerise, it is perfect for those with existing problems such as lower back pain, which can be helped, and for pregnant women wanting to keep fit, but avoid bumps and jolts!

Gym balls come in a wide variety of sizes and stengths from smaller exercise balls through to professional speciality fitness balls and physiotherapy balls. We also show a range of accessories such as ball stoppers, pumps and fixa kits and, to help you get the most from your gym ball, many dvds and books detailing hundreds of exercises and workouts for all abilities.
