Bender Ball Testimonials

Maggie, Alexander City, AL  

 

This is a great little gadget, and the video shows how to do the exercises quick and simple.  Even though the workouts are short, my belly got much stronger and flatter, and the crunches didn’t harm my back (which has some issues).  I achieved much wider range of motion than before, WITHOUT pain.  I think because it's smaller than a traditional exercise ball it works your muscles much more intensely.  I have tried many different workouts and  gadgets  to tone and flatten my belly, but this is the best of the lot.

I got the Bender Ball a few days ago and I’m feeling it in muscles I never knew I had.  The instructional video is very easy to follow and shows the harder and easier variations at once. Due to arthritis in my back, conventional ab and back work is not for me, but the bender ball made exercising a reality for me. I felt the results the first day!

I never order anything over the phone, but  I ordered it online and the order process only took 5 minutes. I got my ball 2 weeks after I ordered it (exactly how long they said it would take).  I have been using it for 15 min a day for 4 days a week for 2 weeks and am already seeing results.  I absolutely love how easy it is and how it is helping my lower back pain.  It is actually a good deal.

I am thrilled with my purchase and am happy to post a positive review!  I've worked out regularly for 10 years, but I’ve never felt so strongly about a product.  My abs literally quivered as I completed the exercises and I knew I would be sore in the morning. (I work my abs 2-3 times a week and run; my abs have not been sore in years.)   The workout itself wasn't painful because of the support the Bender Ball provides to your back.  I am very happy with this product.

My husband got me the Bender ball for Christmas with the DVD for exercise to help with making my lower back stronger.  I have arthritis in my lower back and needed to strengthen my abs and back – it works!

I get bad back pain when doing ab workouts, and the Bender Ball helps me get through the workout without my lower back hurting. I watched the DVD that came with the ball, and then I started using it with my other workout DVDs. The ball is definitely not like the balls that my children have - it has much more give to it like larger stability balls. Thank goodness for it!

We have used this ball in Pilates class for a year, and it’s useful for building strength as you can squeeze it between your knees or ankles when doing ab or other exercises. It makes overall strength training better, and if you have a bad back like me, it helps you to do the exercises without hurting your back. You can put this ball under your butt when you are doing exercises like leg lifts, and it totally takes the strain off the lower back. I completely endorse this ball, but I am in no way affiliated with the people who make them. I am a student who doesn't have much time to work out, but it is important for me to do Pilates at home to strengthen my back. This ball makes this possible for me.

It did take about 3 1/2 weeks for my Bender Ball to arrive, but it came together with its video. I have to say that I really quite like it. It's simple to use and I love that the workouts are short and sweet and that they target specific areas like abs, buns and thighs. I give it a thumbs up.

For those of you who are wondering....YES it really works! I love the Bender Ball, never had any hassles and would buy it again. It took a little while to place the order and receive it but they do not "automatically" sign you up for deliveries of product (like some product sites do). They ask you when you place the order, and all you have to say is no if you don't want anything else shipped to you. I say give it a try! All you have to lose is LOVE HANDLES :)

I received my ball a week ago and love it! You can really feel this quick abs work! I have a large ball and have done a gazillion crunches, but after a few days I get bored with crunches. So this is quick, to the point, and you can feel it! I am looking forward to the results. Someone suggested getting a cheap ball from the store...I don't think I would recommend that! Some of the exercises from the abs and the buns/thighs workouts require you to put the ball under your tail bone with your body weight resting on the ball. This bender ball has a lot of give and bounces back once you get your bum off of it... I don't think a dodge ball is going to cooperate like this one does! I read in another comment it is great to use with Pilates stretches and moves...I have extremely tight hamstrings that no matter how much I stretch are tight and this little ball helps me move them into a deeper stretch when I put it under my tail bone! I give it an A+... go for it!

The Bender Ball works. It gives you an excellent abdominal workout. The first time I used it I thought "I don't feel a thing" but then the next day I could barely sit up. Take it easy at first.

I loved this ball so much I bought 25 of them and now use them in the strength section of all of my classes, 5-7 classes a week, all age groups and fitness levels. What I like best is it protects the low back during a reverse crunch (sit on the floor, lean back 20-30 degrees, then come back up to a sit), and you can get more range of motion without low-back and neck pain.  I'm not involved with this company in any way, just a happy buyer with happy aerobics students.
