The benefit of these Natural Fitness Anti-Burst Balls is that they are composed of a non-toxic vinyl. In order to achieve a soft, flexible material, most PVC-based products utilize plasticizers that contain phthalates. These phthalates have been proven to be harmful to the environment and pose health risks to humans. Natural Fitness has developed a non-toxic, phthalate-free plasticizer for their PVC-based products. This new plasticizer is safer for the user and better for the environment.
Stability Balls are a very versatile tool. They can be used to promote core strength for all ages and ability levels. And they can be used in aerobic exercises, strength training, Pilates or yoga. Anti-burst, or Burst-Resistant, exercise balls are made with a special material that will prevent the air-filled ball from bursting if punctured - it will slowly deflate instead.
Check out our guides for HOW-TO use Stability Balls with comprehensive videos, articles and tips on Yoga as a practice.
Natural Fitness is an eco-friendly yoga and fitness company. Natural Fitness uses a solar-powered web host which captures 100% of its electricity from photovoltaic panels located on its roof, uses all recycled packaging, and finally they plant a tree in the rainforest for each product sold. Planting a tree helps offset the environmental impact from manufacturing and transportation of your purchase. The trees are planted in areas of the rainforest with degraded soils from slash and burn farming, clear-cutting and over-use. The trees help stabilize erosion while rebuilding the soil and protecting nearby streams and rivers. In addition, trees absorb CO2 and other greenhouse gasses while releasing oxygen. These trees also provide important sustainable resources to the local communities such as food, fiber, building materials and fuel.
