Excellent resource for professionals.

I am a personal trainer. As such, I am always on the lookout for new resources that will give me "something new" to use with my clients. This book delivers. In 11 years as a trainer, I have seen many resources on ball exercises. This one included all of those, and several new takes that I've not seen before. Most ball exercises are either too basic or way too advanced. This presents an excellent mix, which is well organized to make it useable. I showed the book to another friend, who is a personal trainer, also. She bought a copy, too and enjoyed it even more than I did! Our clients have enjoyed the variety of exercises, as well, which is where the "rubber meets the road" so to speak. What good is new information if the exercises are no fun? I highly recommend this one.

Made me a believer in the swiss ball

I must admit I thought the swiss ball was hype and junk until I started using it. Once I started with some basic exercises I wanted to further improve my core strength so I bought this book to help me out; hey,it is cheaper than a personal trainer! Once you get the burn you can't help but believe in the swiss ball. The book begins by illustrating the various muscle groups within the body which helps for targeting certain muscles. The exercises are fully practical and easy enough if you follow the directions. The exercises are given in step by step manner with complete photogrpahs illustrating each move to complete an exercise. The book begins with balance and familiarity then goes into warm up/ cool down, upper body, back, shoulder, arm, lower, midsection and 20-minute routines. I tend to pick and choose my poison so I go for what suits me best. Each page has tips and hints to help you improve your routine. Technique is emphasized. Each exercise tells you what area is benefiting and there are dgrees of exercise ranging from beginner to advanced. This is a good book to help you exercise at home or take the plan to the gym. This is a great little book that will help you achieve total fitness. Recommended for health nuts who like to exercise. .
