Bosu......

[banslug]

I bought a Bosu yesterday. I can't believe I've had the patience to not rip the box open and give it a test drive! LOL I'm planning on opening it tonight and checking it out.

Tell me....how do you use yours? Are there workout tapes/DVDs out there for it? What do you do with your Bosu???

Thanks!

I just bought one also. I bought a few DVDs from Collage and also Mindy's site. My favorite one is Bosu Blast with Seasun Zieger. It's a new CIA workout and it comes with an entire other 70 minute workout on it that's very tough and good! Highly recommend it. I have only done my one other one Cardio Combustion with Rob Glick (from Collage) and it was good also.

ETA: Good luck running on top of it....quite a challenge and you really feel your muscles firing to stabilize you . It makes my low back a little sore from all of that stabilizing. It's fun cuz it's bouncy!

Gayle....I don't own a Bosu, but it is my favorite cardio class at the gym. I love it!! Is is easy on my achy knees(though it can be tough on the ankles til they get used to it), makes me laugh at myself....cause no one is perfect on it....even the instructors! It is not if you fall off, but when is the quote of just about everyone who teaches the class. I love it also because you get an awesome core workout without realizing it. I only usually do the half hour class, but my heartrate is up the whole time, and you got to love cardio that makes you grin. Hope you have fun!

Hi I love my bosu.
Some workouts that I have bought and liked.....
Rob Glick Cardio Combustion
Gay Gasper (at collage under bosu)
Mindy Mylrea Explode (great one, comes on a double bosu workout with Kelli Roberts leading the other workout got it at Mindy's site)
I just got the new CIA DVD with the two workouts ( I think it's called double Cardio)and it looks like a good workout. Just did the other one on it All body Cardio and really liked that one alot. It was very intense!
Mindy Mylrea also has one called Awesome Strength where she uses the bosu. All the exercisers use different pieces of equipment.
Have Fun!

Gayle,

There are quite a few bosu DVD's available. There is a whole series from when they started it. There is a good one with the body bar. I would have to go downstairs to see the name of them. There is one combo with Mindy and Keli Roberts that is really good.

In a few minutes, I will go see what the names of them are. I think you can get them at the body bar website.
