I have a stability ball, so I figured I'd make do with that instead. But that Ballast ball sounds really neat! Kind of like the ol' medicine ball our grandmothers used, right?

It lets you do so many new things that you can't do with a traditional stability ball b/c it doesn't roll. Since it stays in place, you can do things like jump squats around it w/o worrying about it rolling out from under you. Also, the different shaking moves you can do with it provides a great upper body workout too. You wanna know a secret though? You can just take a traditional stability ball, put a funnel in the air hole, and fill it with a little sand or water. It works just as well, and you'll save yourself around $50.
