The BOSU ball was invented by David Weck in 1999. Since then its
popularity has exploded and now this piece of equipment is a staple in
many fitness centers. I use the BOSU a lot with my clients BOSU is
short for ‘both sides up’. It is used for balance training, core
strengthening, and reflex improvement. The BOSU ball isn’t really a
ball, it’s actually half of a ball on a board.
Because the BOSU ball is unstable when it is used dome-side down,
users are forced to use more muscles, thereby improving overall
strength, and balance. The use of this unstable piece of equipment works
not only the major muscles but also the smaller stabilizing muscles
that are usually minimized during typical workouts. Click here to read more.

I've seen a lot of fads come and go, but three things remain constant in getting healthy and staying fit. A positive mental attitude, a healthy balanced diet, and a fitness program built on proper strength training and cardiovascular exercise. Practice these three things daily and you will discover that they lead to "The Fountain of Youth."
