One of the best weight loss workouts involves using the Bosu ball. The Bosu ball is that half blue ball you see in the gym. It is flat on the bottom while the blue part is an inflated dome. Weight loss equipment does not get any better than this one.

Bosu ball exercises can workout the whole body. Lower, middle and lower bosy workouts can be performed utlizing the Bosu. Leg workouts typically begin with squats. Like many Bosu ball exercises, you can perform this with the bubble up or down, depending on how difficult you want to make the exercise. The simplest exercise is to simply stand on the blue bubble and perform squats. It will require balance and strength to maneuver through the workout. Difficulty can be added by using hand weights. If you want more advanced exercises, flip the Bosu over so that the dome is on the floor and the flat part can be stoods on. This makes balance as important as strength in this exercise. Another variation of the squat is to hold the Bosu ball over your head and perform squats while standing on the floor.

Another leg workout is the lunge. With the dome side up take one step backwards from the Bosu. Perform the lunge by starting with either leg and lunge onto the top of the Bosu. Switch legs as you perform the exercise. As you perform this exercise you can hold weights.

Mid-section exercises work the abdominal muscles. You can perform a simple sit up by sitting on top of the dome with your feet on the floor. You can lift your legs and do crunches, pulling your legs in to your chest then expanding them outward. You can do the bicycle crunch exercises or any number of other exercises while sitting on the Bosu. You will have to tighten your abs during each exercise as you work to kep your balance on the Bosu ball.

Upper body workouts with the Bosu include pushups. With your feet on the floor and your hands on the Bosu, perform the typical pushup. You can also place your hands on the floor and put your feet up on the Bosu dome to do pushups. Flip the Bosu over so the dome is on the floor and grab the outer edges of the flat side to perform more advanced pushups. You can poerform shoulder exercises by pushing the Bosu ball overhead. Weight loss exercises do not get much better than this.

As you can see the Bosu is a very versatile piece of exercise equipment. The Bosu is one of the best things to use for weight loss workouts. You will lose weight and gain strength using it.
