Many of t he exercises in Inside Out require the use of a gymball (otherwise known as exercise ball, medicine ball, fitball, swiss ball etc) .
If you do not already own a gymball, we suggest that the Australian-made balls available from Logical Fitness, available in a range of sizes, strengths and colours, offer the AntiBurst and other safety features that are important to your successful and safe exercising.
