I have found that after doing some research the Bosu Balance Trainer can help you improve on many thing we take for granted. It can help you with something as simple as your balance, because the balance trainer is never stable, you are constantly engaging the small stabilizer muscles in the upper and lower body to keep you in place. Another thing it can help you with is Kinesthetic awareness which means your awareness of how the body is positioned at any given moment. This awareness can often decline as we age, so the Balance Trainer can help you stay connected with how your body moves.
Proprioception, which is how your body responds to external forces to keep your joints in the right position. When you stand on a Balance Trainer, all of your muscles are forced to contract to keep your joints in proper position. This can help in making normal activities easier. The Balance Trainer can be very versatile and add fun to your workouts, and we will be looking at workouts with the Bosu Balance Trainer in future articles.
