Weight Loss With Bosu Ball Workouts
Category: Exercise

Bosu

One of the best celebrity weight loss workouts involves using the Bosu ball. The Bosu ball is the blue dome half ball you see in workout facilities. It has a bubble, or dome, on the top and a flat bottom. It is one of the single best weight loss workout equipment that you can use.

Bosu ball exercises can workout the whole body. Lower, middle and lower bosy workouts can be performed utlizing the Bosu. You can begin your leg workouts with squats. Place the Bosu ball with the dome up or down depending on how difficult you want to make the exercise. The simplest exercise is to simply stand on the blue bubble and perform squats. It will require balance and strength to maneuver through the workout. You can use hold weights to add to the difficulty. If you want more advanced exercises, flip the Bosu over so that the dome is on the floor and the flat part can be stoods on. Strength and balance are each key to the exercise. You could also pick up the Bosu and hold it over your head while you perform the squat.

The lunge is another leg workout. Take one step back from the Bosu with the dome side up. Perform the lunge by starting with either leg and lunge onto the top of the Bosu. Alternate legs as you do the exercise. You can also hold weights while you perform the exercise.

Mid-section exercises work the abdominal muscles. You can perform a simple sit up by sitting on top of the dome with your feet on the floor. You can lift your legs and do crunches, pulling your legs in to your chest then expanding them outward. The bicycle crunch exercise is but one movement that can be done on the Bosu. Your abs will remain tightened through each exercise as you stay balanced on the Bosu ball.

Pushups, among other upper body workouts, can be perfomed with the Bosu. With your feet on the floor and your hands on the Bosu, perform the typical pushup. You can also put your feet on the Bosu, place your hands on the floor and do pushups. A more advanced exercise is to flip the Bosu over and grab the edges of the flat side and perform pushups. You can workout your shoulders by simply pushing the Bosu up over head. Celebrity weight loss tips do not get much better than this.

It is obvious that the Bosu is one of the most versatile workout pieces of equipment available. There aren’t many weight loss workouts that are better than using the Bosu. You will lose weight and gain strength using it.
