Overview
A 9-inch inflatable PVC ball built as a core, balance and rehab accessory rather than a full-size stability ball. It has a textured, slightly grippy surface and inflates by mouth using an included straw, no pump required.
- 9-inch anti-burst PVC diameter
- Inflates by mouth with the included straw, no pump
- Textured, non-slip surface for grip
- Comes with an exercise instruction booklet
Who it's for
Good for people continuing PT or OT exercises at home, or anyone doing targeted core, shoulder or neck strengthening work. Not a substitute for a full-size stability ball meant for sitting or lying across.
Pros and cons
- Matches the ball used in PT and OT clinics for less money
- Easy to partially deflate for lower-intensity exercises
- Textured surface grips against skin, wall or floor
- Compact enough to store or travel with
- Has a strong new-plastic smell at first that fades over a few days
- Not suited to exercises that call for a weighted ball
- Loses a small amount of air during inflation itself
Performance notes
It inflates by mouth through the included straw, no pump needed, and can be left partially deflated for gentler exercises or fully inflated for more resistance. The textured PVC surface helps it grip skin, a wall or the floor instead of sliding during pushups or wall exercises.
