Amazon.com Product Description Appropriate for everyone from elite athletes to kids to weekend warriors trying to stay in shape, the Bosu 3D System Balance Trainer helps you strengthen and coordinate several major muscle groups, including the muscles you don't see. The 3D System targets your core muscles--the muscles around your abdominal and back area--while you perform a host of different workouts, from lunges and bicep curls to lateral shoulder raises and hip extensions.
As a result, you not only gain strength, trim, and tone, but also improve your balance and coordination along the way. In addition, Bosu training helps strengthen the mind, with thoughtful movement that requires the participant to not only be physically involved, but also "here and present" with the mind fully engaged. By combining physical and mental focus, Bosu training will boost your performance across a wide continuum of activities, including sports, recreation, and daily tasks.
At the heart of the 3D system is a multipurpose, modular exercise platform with a balance ball surface in the middle. The platform serves as an exercise base by itself, but also attaches to an included balance bar and adjustable resistance tubing to give you even more workout flexibility. The balance bar makes the 3D System more accessible to beginners, but also encourages seasoned Bosu users to create a more varied and versatile workout program. The system also includes a workout program on DVD.

About BOSU Invented by David Weck, the BOSU Balance Trainer debuted in 2000 and quickly became one of the most successful fitness training products on the market. Originally, the name "BOSU" was an acronym for Both Sides Up. It meant that the BOSU Balance Trainer could be used on either side, the dome or the platform. Today, the term BOSU has evolved beyond the product to now mean Both Sides Utilized, a mindful approach to exercise that is a step beyond traditional training. This clarity of who BOSU is and what they want to offer inspired the development of additional BOSU products and programming, all of which are grounded in exercise science and proven in real-life application.
BOSU Training is about expanding movement capabilities, reshaping bodies, and strengthening minds. It's about inserting thought into movement, being physically involved, and also being present and fully engaged in the training process. BOSU's products are known industry-wide for training balance, enhancing flexibility, and delivering killer cardio workouts. They have an unprecedented reputation for building strength and fine tuning skills for sport. But on their own, BOSU products are just molded plastic, weighted rubber, and stability balls with secret filling. You have to engage them in order to bring them to life! So, beyond their products, BOSU offers a system of mindful action, intentional movement, and smart science that produces results.
The BOSU training approach makes certain that when you get on the BOSU Balance Trainer or move with the BOSU Ballast Ball, you will get everything from a feel-good, get-fit, no-regrets training tool. Even more than that, you get an intelligent training method that transcends any piece of fitness equipment.
Excellent piece of workout equipmentJanuary 30, 2009 Polly Crowninshield(Marblehead, MA United States) 32 out of 32 found this review helpful
I have been kind of sick of my treadmill/free weight workouts so I decided to look for something new that was not expensive, quick and maybe even fun...ish!
So I found this Bosu trainer. I just finished the first workout and it was incredible...really good for working on balance, but you can hold on throughout! It works your core muscles without you having to do any crunches, situps or other ungodly manoever...I mean, I can feel my abs right now, but not in a bad way...just in a way that lets me know I exercised them. This thing does cardio, strength and you can also stretch on it...the DVD that's included shows you how. For $114, I think this gives a lot of bang for the buck...and it feels very sturdy. Although it comes with a cheap pump, I had a bicycle pump that I blew it up with. So, for what it's worth, I would highly recommend this.
Great product for those with balance and walking issues!March 26, 2009 J. Behrens(Sarasota, Florida United States) 18 out of 18 found this review helpful
This Bosu in itself was used by my physical therapist because I needed help in regaining balance control. My walking was off balance due to a fall I had as well as a birth defect. She introduced me to this aparatus whic at first I was not confident that I could get on it and make it work with me. My PT then showed me how with er assistance. Pretty soon,I was on there and balancing myself just standing and quickly learned to balance myself without the support and spotting from my PT! I decided it would be a great way to practice at home and have a way to get exercise, too! After a few nights of web searching, I found this awesome deal with Amazon. It was to great of a deal to pass up! You will not find a better deal anywhere than Amazon for the Bosu 3 D System!
Fun workoutMay 27, 2009 Kari Seidensticker(Texas) 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
I bought this product because I had used one in the gym and realized it really helped my hip loosen up. The more I used it the better my hip got. I thought too that my elderly Mother would benefit from the balancing aspects.
I am recommending this product 100%!!
UNBELIEVABLE! GREAT!May 17, 2009 Lori Ruhl(yukon, OK) 13 out of 14 found this review helpful
This is the most versatile piece of equipment I have ever had. It does it all, toning and cardio! I had an awesome trainer who I was paying $60 an hour that showed me several exercises to do with it. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants a versatile piece of excersise equipment.
Great...HoweverSeptember 15, 2009 C. Worthington(NY) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
The great thing about this item is that it was absolutely cheaper to buy from Amazon then bosu website. So yes I am happy about that however 3 weeks later hsn had a better package deal that included what I ordered here plus 6 workout dvds for $159. Regardless where you purchase it, Im well over 200 pounds and yes I can run and hope on it in an apartment without making any noises.
