Bender Ball

Product Information

How can "the little ball that does it all", that is the name/slogan it was given in the industry, transform the way I exercise, stretch, and live? Hearst UK is the trading name of the National Magazine Company Ltd, 30 Panton Street, Leicester Square, London, SW1Y 4AJ.

Another way to put it is if you put the ball on the floor and lay your hand over it, only with the weight of your hand without additional pressure, the ball should compress just a little but not flatten. MiraFit’s Pilates Ball is one of the cheapest in our edit, but the brand certainly hasn’t compromised on quality. You can always do this with any cushion at home which is what we recommend for those who do not have a ball.This dynamic workout tool will give your abs, legs, and entire core a good workout in minutes - and have fun doing it!

You'll get the Bender Ball, The Bender Method Manual and Leslee Bender's amazing video: The Bender Method of Core Training. Take my word for it: as someone who has done Pilates almost every week for the past 18 months, classes that include the use of a Pilates ball are both more challenging and more fun than when they’re not. If you are familiar with Laura's yoga teaching style, you know she loves to integrate the Bender ball into her classes. Each muscle has a job to do and if they are not doing it, you will likely feel aches and pains at some point.Interlock your hands behind your head and lift both feet up, bending your knees so they are in line with your hips.

As you exhale, engage your core, press down into your pubic bone and press down into the ball drawing it towards your chest as you lift your head, neck and shoulders off the mat and come into a small extension.

On the exhale, engage your core and reach your right arm behind your head and your left leg straight out in front of you. As mentioned earlier we have gone out and purchased Bender ball-inspired products, or knockoffs, and did not find one that matched this one. If you only develop your major muscle groups leaving behind smaller postural and skeletal muscles, it can be a cause for injury in the future. We still use it during weekly yoga and functional fitness or FunFit classes at the School of Happiness virtual studio.

We do recommend following trained professionals, ideally, Bender method certified trainers and instructors.
