Bosu Balance Trainer for Core Strength Training ~ 2

This article is a continuation of my Bosu Balance Trainer for Core Strength Training ~ 1 (see list of Bosu Ball articles at bottom of page).

These articles teach you that your balance is an essential part of you, your center, or as I like to call it, the 'core of your being.' It is where all your Energy and your Power come from. It is what the Chinese call your ‘chi’ and the Yogis call your 'kundalini.'

A beautiful, evenly toned, strengthened and balanced body will keep you injury free and protect your back. It will help you achieve poise and gracefulness, vital elements as you age.

So grab your Bosu Home Balance Trainer and lets continue with the 2nd article on core strength training. The Bosu Ball is a fabulous tool for core exercises, in addition to balance training. Because your core and balance go hand in hand, it can aid you in achieving both.

Also, see my Bosu Balance Trainer and Body Balance articles to increase your understanding of how improving your physical balance can improve your total body-mind-soul balance!

'Movement is a medicine for creating change in a person's physical, emotional, and mental states.' ~ Carol Welch

Body-mind balance in all things will keep you young and strong! So, go deep into the core of your being, when you focus on your improving balance with these poses and movements. Begin with the improvements in core strength and balance in you body to initiate the changes you desire in your mind, your heart and in your life.

Say positive affirmations while you do your Bosu Balance Trainer exercises: I am balanced in all things in my body-mind-soul!

When you do these core strength training exercise on your Bosu Ball, and you do them meditatively, you are doing movement as medicine to heal your body-mind-soul!

My stepson, Alex and his friends continued to help me with the poses on this page. They started out with sitting balance exercises. I showed them the boat pose, and they began creating their own versions of the pose.

The easiest one perhaps, is just sitting in this position, with you knees bent up, demonstrated by Brett and Chelsie:

Here I am, right, doing the boat pose, no hands, in a modified position, with legs bent. Then, in the full boat pose position with my legs straight.

I only felt comfortable with my derrière towards the bottom of the ball, because it was the best way I could get the great balance along with a good form.

If you can do this pose with your derrière all the way on the top, please send me a picture of your feat, in the invitation below! I would love to post it as a page on my website to show that it can actually be done. I continually experiment with my balance and my form on the Bosu Balance Trainer.

Brett also tried it in a more lying down position, legs bent at first, then he was able to straighten them. You can see that he is laughing at himself, having a ball (no pun intended) as he learned to balance:

Then Chelsie had fun with this variation. You can change legs to balance the position on each side. Alternate leg positions, with repetitions to get a great abdominal work-out.

And finally, the simple movement on the Bosu Balance Trainer that dynamically engages your core and requires incredible balance is the "Get Down Get Up" movement, shown in the next video. You can do this fast or slow. I chose to focus more inwardly and do it slow and meditatively. It is a great overall warm-up and fitness movement as well.

Congratulations on your journey to body-mind balance on your Bosu Home Balance Trainer! As you work on your balance and on your core, you will find your Power and your balance in all things in you life!

May your journey to body-mind-soul healing be enhanced by these Bosu Balance Trainer core strength training exercises!
