If you are looking for a fun way to improve your balance, coordination, stability, posture, inner core and even help prevent injury then you need to take a very close look at bongo boards.
Bongo Boards have been around since the early 1950's. They have not changed much since then and neither has the general idea of having a lot of fun while you exercise your balance.
At first glance these boards look very much like a modern skateboard. They have a deck that is the same size and shape. The deck is covered in a grip tape just like a skateboard deck. This keeps you from slipping off. Instead of two sets of wheels mounted to the bottom, there is one large roller that pivots and slides from side to side, depending on how you distribute your weight.
The idea to stand with one foot on each end and rock side to side. While you are doing this you have to keep your balance. It can be challenging at first but once you get the hang of it, it is a blast! You can change things up a bit by putting your feet in a heel to toe type fashion. This can really work out your whole lower body, right down to your toes.
You can also use bongo boards to tone your upper body. Set it on the ground and place one hand on each end where your feet would have been and try some push-ups. This can be quite a challenge indeed but once you get the hang of it Bongo boards make an excellent addition to an already boring old workout routine.
