BOSU Ball Size?

[baylian]

Any help on this matter is appreciated!

I want to purchase a BOSU ball. However I notice on the BOSU company website that there are two different sizes. One is 65MM/26"D and the other is called the BOSU sport which is 55MM/22"D.

I am leaning towards the smaller one because I'm 5'4" (not sure if that even matters). Not even sure what I would do with it but I just want it in my home gym. Probably mainly for core work and push ups.

Thanks so much!

Mine is the larger one. Highly recommended. Great little toy for working on balance.

I have the larger one. I'm 5'1". I think I would find the smaller size too restrictive for core work and push ups. I also use mine for one legged squats (balance work - not weight work), so having that extra couple of inches diameter under my foot is reassuring.

I ended up buying the bigger one. I thought the same thing that I would want the extra diameter for reassurance. Thanks!
