What Is The Swiss Ball And How Does It Work?

The Swiss ball is also known as the exercise ball, gym ball, balance ball, gym ball, or pezzi ball. It is soft and comes in different sizes. It is made of elastic and filled with air. It was developed by Aquilino Cosani, an Italian plastics manufacturer, and was known as the gymnastik.

Initially, it was used for physical rehabilitation, but in the 1980s and 1990s, American therapists started using these balls in the athletic arena. Later, these balls became a key tool in the fitness industry.

The Swiss ball, mainly used for abdominal exercises, works by acting as a surface, weight, and workout machine. The instability of a bouncy round ball works on all the major and minor muscle groups in your body. It also adds resistance to your movement, thereby making you use muscle strength and muscle power to complete the exercise. Beginners interested in medicine ball exercises can first try these as the Swiss ball is much lighter than a medicine ball.

The Swiss ball is used in balance ball exercises, pilates ball exercises, and yoga ball exercises. It works on a deep core muscle, the transverse abdominis. The benefits of adding the Swiss ball to your workout routine are that they aid core stability exercises, help you build a strong core and get flat abs (or belly), improve balance, and reduce back and neck pain (1), (2), (3). A stability ball is a fantastic ab exercise equipment, providing excellent support and versatility to enhance your core workouts. Here are 30 Swiss ball exercises you can try out.

Sobiya, a lawyer and a blogger, shared her weight loss success story in her blog. She explained how she used a yoga mat, a stability ball, a pair of dumbbells, and a jump rope to help her shed those stubborn pounds. She said, “I noticed that I just needed a few things and a strict disciplinary measure, to keep myself motivated and in the loop. By the end of 3 months, I found myself to be 5 kilos lighter (i).”

Quick Tip

Make sure the Swiss ball is appropriately inflated. Over-inflated exercise balls have a higher risk of bursting, while under-inflated ones lose their desired instability.
