In 1999 by David Weck developed a contemporary exercise machinery called the BOSU ball. The BOSU ball resembles half of an exercise ball attached to a flat platform. It was designed to help you improve your balance and flexibility, sharpen your reflexes, and reshape your body.
Any typical workout can be enhanced by using the use of a BOSU ball. It forces you to use more muscles to stabilize your body, it means your workout will be more intense, making you burn more calories.
