Question 1

If you want to carry it in a suitcase how do you deflate it?

Accepted Answer

It's a blow up ball so you just have you pull the plug and deflate it

Question 2

I've just started Pilates and we use semi inflated balls - is the same?

Accepted Answer

I believe it is. We did yoga, Pilates and chi with it.  It's very good.  Not to small not to big. Just right size. And it helps.

Question 3

Perhaps a silly question but how do you use it? It looks smaller than normal gym balls, is it to support the lower back in seated exercises?

Accepted Answer

Yeah you can place it between your knees, it helps with your core muscles when doing the bridge palates exercises, here is some suggestions that I have used,    Pilates exercisesPilates Level Target areas FocusBicycleBicycle▶ 00:41Plank (with arm variations)Plank (with arm variations)▶ 00:42Bridge: one-leg bridgeBridge: one-leg bridge▶ 00:44Snake twist 1 and 2Snake twist 1 and 2▶ 00:34ScissorsScissors▶ 00:34Rowing 2Rowing 2▶ 00:54Criss cross with ballCriss cross with ball▶ 00:48ClamsClams▶ 00:23Supine floor barreSupine floor barre▶ 00:38SwimmingSwimming▶ 00:37Criss crossCriss cross▶ 00:32Roll upRoll up▶ 00:28Double-leg stretchDouble-leg stretch▶ 00:31Pelvic clocksPelvic clocks▶ 00:35Side plankSide plank▶ 00:27Releve, straight-leg and knee bent (with one-leg va…Releve, straight-leg and knee bent (with one-leg va…▶ 00:24CorkscrewCorkscrew▶ 00:28Leg liftLeg lift▶ 00:24RollingRolling▶ 00:41Lower liftLower lift▶ 00:39Leg lift in external rotationLeg lift in external rotation▶ 00:21SwanSwan▶ 00:41Single-leg stretchSingle-leg stretch▶ 00:30Pilates plie squats (parallel, turned out, flat, …Pilates plie squats (parallel, turned out, flat, …▶ 00:53Bicep curl with leg extensionBicep curl with leg extension▶ 00:31The hundredThe hundred▶ 01:14Hug a treeHug a tree▶ 00:32Shaving the headShaving the head▶ 00:34TeaserTeaser▶ 00:56Rowing 1Rowing 1▶ 00:47Roll overRoll over▶ 00:46Arm rotationsArm rotations▶ 00:44Triceps pressTriceps press▶ 00:30Leg circlesLeg circles▶ 00:23Cat cowCat cow▶ 00:28Straight-leg crunch with ballStraight-leg crunch with ball▶ 00:49Bridge with glute lower liftBridge with glute lower lift▶ 00:33CobraCobra▶ 00:34Plank with leg liftPlank with leg lift▶ 00:28Pilates pushupPilates pushup▶ 00:47Single-leg circlesSingle-leg circles▶ 00:30Abdominal leg rotationsAbdominal leg rotations▶ 00:29Reverse plank (with leg pull)Reverse plank (with leg pull)▶ 00:35Knee foldsKnee folds▶ 00:33Inner thigh circlesInner thigh circles▶ 00:32Neck pullNeck pull▶ 00:45Arm and leg extension on kneesArm and leg extension on knees▶ 00:27About our adsPilates Classes Online - Join Our Community TodayAd · www.pilatesanytime.comTry Classes Free For 15 Days.
