Balance Trainer Sport 50 CM Surface
Before you begin the BOSU
®
Balance Trainer Sport 50 CM workout, it’s important
that you feel comfortable stepping on and off the dynamic surface of the dome in all
directions. Practice slowly stepping up on top of the dome. Then, walk forward off
the dome and onto the floor. Repeat a few times, making sure that you alternate legs
(See Fig. A and Fig. B). When you are comfortable stepping up and down in a forward
direction, practice stepping up and down from the side of the BOSU
