build muscleWe have all used our at least seen fitness balls before. They are those fun, inflatable, squishy balls people use to build muscle at home. I have never felt too comfortable on them because of the balance involved. But according to a recent cbsnew.com report, people should watch out for bursting fitness balls. You can imagine how someone could injure themselves if doing an exercise on top of a ball that pops, sending them straight into the ground. Most people would probably be more surprised than anything but landing awkward could spell disaster. Older people or those with weaker bones could also easily hurt themselves in the event of a fitness ball blow out.

Anyone who owns an EB Brands fitness ball should deflate the product immediately. According to cbsnews.com, 3 million EB Brands fitness balls are at risk of popping under build muscle exercise pressure. CBS reported, 47 cases of people’s fitness balls exploding from this brand. The main problem is over inflation. People need to make sure that they don’t fill fitness balls to the breaking point before using. There should be some ball give when doing build muscle exercises.
