FITMIND Thick Exercise Ball 21.7" for Yoga and Pilates, 1100lb Load Bearing, Hand Pump, Anti-Burst, Green

We got this exercise ball to help heal a hurt back by doing stability exercises. So far this ball has held up to expectations but we haven't test it with more than body weight. The color is not as bright as the sample images but that wasn't a big deal to us. We did notice that there are some pieces of material peeling off but it seems more cosmetic than structural and may be shavings that weren't fully cleaned off during production. No issues with the ball holding inflation after initial stretching and seems on par with other exercise balls we have used.

I love this. I have been looking for one of these for a long time. The price is great for its size, believe me when you inflate this, you cannot miss it, and you remember to use it. The pump is well, a pump. It took a little white to get into the groove, but I got it. Here is a tip, when you get it it's wrinkled, try to not have it folded as you use the pump the first few times. I was doing that and didn't notice. When you see it starting to inflate, put it in-between your legs. This will leave a better chance to inflate, and you can feel it, which again makes it easier to use the pump. I found it better to point the hole in front of me instead of the middle. When I got on it, as kids we are afraid of popped ballons, but this is sturdy and I started to feel my front legs, and core tightening. I am also short and I thought it would be difficult to get sit on top, but it was great. I think with it being a little high it will help me work out more.
