i confess. i thought this would be a bigger deal than it was. i've actually used the stability ball as a chair for almost two months now, and i don't think my abs are any better for it. but, it is convenient. i have very little space and it fits perfectly under my desk so i don't have to drag over a dining chair every night. i think it's going to stay a while.

So Did this ball help in anything other than space saving ? Is there any good link you referred to before trying this out which explains what are advantages of this ?
Anon:
The premise was to strengthen core muscles (abs & back). I didn't read it online anywhere, this was born from the "trend" of the late 90's where some offices were having employees switch to balls rather than chairs to help ease lower back pain.
I was always curious about that idea and just wanted to see if it made a difference to me. I figured the only way to really test it would be to dedicate a particular space of time to trying it out.
I've heard others like it, for me it didn't really matter.
