Took the Plunge!!

Well, I caved and ordered the Bosu. I'm thinking I acted a bit prematurely. I'm wondering if you can do heavy weight work on it ~ upper body and lower body. I don't do a whole lot of cardio, mostly weight work. TIA for you help!

Can I be really stupid and ask what is a Bosu?? Just curious.

Sorry if I am very naive about stuff.

Thanks:+

Hi Annette!

Not a dumb question at all. A Bosu is sort of like a one sided stability ball. It has a flat bottom with a dome shaped top that you can do several exercises on. I think it really tests your core balance. Here's a direct link to the Bosu website. HTH!

I don't own one but....

Just looking at that thing I would be afraid to use any weight on it. I would be afraid of losing my balance & hurting myself with the weight. This is just a fear & perception. Maybe others will know more.
