Advantages: Can do a variety of exercises on it Disadvantages: Bit of an eyesore in the house
..., hamstring curls as well as a variety of abdominal and oblique exercises. If you choose, you can also incorporate your ball into a weights programme, using dumbbells or barbells whilst lying or sitting on it.
I purchased my own ball a few years ago and was using it religiously, however, I live in a small flat and it did take up alot of space. Also, being red in colour, it clashed with my decor a bit. It now happily resides deflated in a cupboard.
I would recomend a fitness ball. However, it may be a little advanced for those people who have limited or no exercise experience. Getting a fitness professional to demonstrate and check your technique and stability on the ball would be advisable before investing in one.

Advantages: An easy to use, heavy duty aid to personal fitness and well being Disadvantages: Initially costly but otherwise none
...About a year ago I purchased the second piece of equipment for our home gym. Now that I have became comfortable with it in actual use, I can perhaps give a fair appraisal.
The Background

...'t afford to be so 'selfish' as seemed necessary when I was on my personal quest to build the 'body-beautiful' for myself. Besides there were/are other rewards to be had in life - and I don't regret for a moment giving up my hard fitness/bodybuilding regime in order to have the wonderfully fulfilled life that I now have with my lovely wife and kids. It simply meant making sacrifices and giving up certain things for the things in life that I feel really mattered!
SO ..... ALONG COMES THE TOTAL GYM 1000 ...
In 2001 I was working many many hours to build a future for my wife and family and having realised a while before that I just didn't have the time to go to the gym after working a 12 hour day - I figured that I would need something effective enough to keep me in reasonable shape (even if not quite what I used to be!).
