Why would you start with the bigger balls and then decrease in weight? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

I don't know from experience, but I could hypothesize that it's not about the weight but about the diameter; it seems like it would be more difficult to clench down onto a smaller pair of them, and easier to hold onto a larger pair, doesn't it?

Hi Nancela, After the first fill, you'll need to occasionally add air to the ball. Once you settle on a good PSI you should use the gauge to test if it's where you like it and maintain that setting.

Well, by name, it is a different product. But what they both have in common is the inclusion of sand within the ball to keep the ball from rolling away. The Stability ball comes in three different sizes according to recommended height.

I'm going to say "maybe." Don't go too big with the ball, as the base itself is not large and has to be secured with something to weight it down (we used bricks). Probably couldn't handle a volleyball, so go smaller than that

Sorry to waffle, but it all depends. They could more easily play with the smaller ball now. But I got my first official size b-ball about fheir age amd grew into it. The officialsize one is a good quality ball which will wait for them to grow into it and beart of their life for many years.

I believe it is weight limits. My previous trampoline buckled under the pressure of.my girth. How was I supposed to lose if I couldn't jump? The pro series alleviated ALL of my concerns. It is a joy to bounce on.

No not at all. That's not the purpose of this exercise ball. It is only filled with air. The idea behind it is that you balance yourself on it to find your perfect balancing point. This would be where your best posture and core development is. It is a great tool for toning your butt and core. I am 5'2 ½" and this ball is perfect height for me at a desk or table doing computer work. So the term "Stability Ball" generally means attaining your personal stability, excercise and development wise. Hope this helps. If any more questions, please ask!

I feel your pain. I had to take mine apart twice. The smooth part of the smaller tube slides into the bigger tube. If you look at the grooved / notched end of the smaller tube, the edge is cut out like a bowl, so the ball sits in it more securely. The small tube fits very snugly into the big tube, so that when you set the height for your batter, the small tube doesn't slip down when they hit it. Good luck.

Yes, because certain moves need a lighter bell and other moves can be done with a heavier one (such as a squat). Plus these contour bells are much more comfortable to work with.

You purchase a ball size based on your particular height and how much weight you need resistance for based on your weight and what you might be lifting if using it with free weights. I read numerous review of cheaper exercise balls that burst on people skimping on the price. I certainly didn't want my 82 year old 6'5" father falling to the floor while doing his exercises.

Nope. Just means the ball has a diameter of 3 inches. If you squeeze it, it depresses perhaps another inch in.The rubber is a very thin material, not designed for longevity. The originals in the 1950's were very thick rubber.

The gold ball is larger than the silver ball and it is also a bit softer. The gold ball makes for a less-intense routine.

No, you don't bounce around as much. They still bounce, but it's not as springy so the bouncing is less.

When exercising there may be some slipping due to perspiration ( sweating ) which could cause the body to glide along the surface of traditional stability balls. Fitter First PRO balls are texturized to minimize this slippingand in my gym I have had no problems whatsoever with slipping on the Fitter First balls. These are my exercise balls of choice for all my personal training sessions.

Since the question I have received sounds like the first part of the question is missing. I will respond this way. You will need to have a pump to inflate and maintain the inflation of your ball. The one you shared as being the one you used looks more than fine for the task.

I am a little heavier than you are and about the same height and the orange ball has been perfect. I don't feel the back pains I used to. The blue one was too big to keep in the house although the results concerning exercises were as good.it is a great buy.

You could try to attach the bigger ball to it, but I think a bigger ball would work better with a taller pole.
