Amazon Basics Wood Wobble Balance Trainer Board, Slip Resistant, for Exercise and Core Strength

Very nicely made, extremely strong and gives you a good workout. But it really helps improve your balance. At first I had a bit of trouble now I'm doing pretty well. I'm 70 and it's greatly improved me. I'm even starting to do well with my eyes closed. It's harder than it looks. I put my Granddaughter to shame,lol. Worth every penny, simple sometimes is often better.

I recently had an ACL reconstruction (hamstring tendon graft). After about 9 months of rehabbing when I reached full resistance, I realized that loss of the hamstring tendon was making me overcompensate with my calf/upper Achilles on the affected leg. As a result, my calf area was sore and painful all day and night. I looked at a good range of stability equipment out there and "felt" (more than anything else) that this was the design I wanted. Turns out my feeling was right on the money. This board is perfect for rebuilding stabilizing muscles in the lower leg (ankle, Achilles, calf), something you can't build simply from calf and toe raises. It made an immediate impact to my upper Achilles soreness. However, curing that pain completely required far more than just the board. The board is now an integral part of my daily routine. I also just balance on it during the day during phone calls and breaks. I liked it so much that I ordered another one for my office. The board is very sturdy and well-made. After daily use, at home and at work, I haven't seen any issues with it. It works best on a carpet or area rug. I wouldn't recommend using it on a hardwood or tiled floor since the bottom is made of hard plastic. The top surface has a sandpaper-y finish, which gives excellent traction to the feet. I find is suitable with both sneakers as well as with bare feet. Wearing sneakers already provides support to the feet, so it makes the balancing routines slightly easier. For full benefit, I would recommend balancing with bare feet. If I had to knit pick, I would said that I would have preferred a slightly larger diameter than the 15.5" currently offered, as this board seems on the smaller side to place both my feet. Since I only wear a size 8.5 - 9, the board is fine when I am in bare feet but tends to be a little small with sneakers on. Men with larger shoe sizes will likely find it more annoying.

After having an ankle fusion, this was one of my favorite things at PT. It loosens up the ankle and builds stability strength. The one my PT has is about $300. For $25 on Amazon I am now able to do my exercises at home. This is the same dimensions and same degree of tilt! Well built and good traction. I would suggest using shoes as this would rip socks right up!

I keep this under my desk for when I get stuck for long periods of time. Works great to get the blood flowing again and it’s more fun than those little walking pads. I don’t think I’d rely on a balance board to lose weight or get into shape especially just standing on it but it’s better than being stationary. It seems pretty sturdy I’m not a big guy 5’7 165 lbs but it feels to be sturdy enough to hold a much bigger person. I catch my little guys jumping and rocking each other on it regularly and it’s held up. The skateboard grip tape is nice especially if you’re barefoot it keeps you from slipping and busting your face. Overall it’s a nice break from the work day. It’s cheaper than a walking pad and it’s quieter than an under desk elliptical or bike. It’s definitely worth the $20.

I initially bought another balance board on Amazon for close to $100. It was a beautiful, quality item, but beyond my current capabilities. I was worried I would injure myself, so I gifted it in a buy nothing group and decided to buy this. I'm 56 and healthy, but I've had 5 kids, 4 by C-section after 35, and my core strength and balance just aren't ideal. This is the right place to start. It's doable, but still a challenge for me to maintain balance for a few minutes at a stretch. I'm wobbly at points in my workout, which is perfect, because that indicates this is at my current level. I do this next to a sturdy desk, and I can hold the edge to steady myself and catch myself if I lose balance. I use this on carpeted flooring. I weigh 166 lbs, and the limit on this is 265 lbs, but if you want it to remain in good shape and last, I would limit that weight to closer to 220-ish lbs. That's just a feeling I have. Take it with a grain of salt. It is a sturdy beast, but that's my take. Anyway....Highly recommend. (It does wobble in all directions, so if you are really struggling with basic balance, you might want to start with the small beginner side-to-side rocker with the shorter distance between the wooden spacers on the underside.)

Really fun to use!! Just make sure you have something or someone sturdy to hold onto at first, until you get the hold of it. There is a minute where you have to learn to balance on it, unless you are just that good.. lol.. but if you're like me, you'll need something to hold onto until you got it!! Maybe even after to make sure, bc you never know.. It is really good to work on balance, legs, & core strength.. If you're more used to it & more advanced you can add weights or different moves. I wouldn't suggest doing what I did & putting it on your driveway bc I totally screwed up a part of the bottom of it from the cement, & scratched the cement a tad bit bc I couldn't wait to put it on a proper surface.. lol.. but it still works like a charm!! Love it, would recommend it for anyone that's starting out or anyone that's experienced in exercise.. It's not a huge piece of professional equipment but it's perfect for the price!!

love this board, I do three sets of four minutes during my workout. I am older and it absolutely prepares me for recovering from trips or other clumsiness which might lead to a fall. I have cut out a small square of 3/4 inch MDF to lift it a bit further off the ground so I have a bit more range before the board bottoms out. This has worked extremely well. I have bought three of them so I have one at each of my kids houses and can use them when we stay over for the weekend. I am addicted to the super simple device and find it superb exercise.

Pros Affordable! Non-slip surface Good size Easy to mount and dismount Cons (Not for me) Some others have commented you can’t use it on a tiled or wood floor. However it works well on carpet.

Ho acquistato la balance board oscillante in legno Amazon Basics e la adoro: è uno strumento semplice ma davvero efficace per migliorare equilibrio, stabilità e propriocezione. 🔹 Qualità costruttiva La tavola è solida e ben rifinita, con superficie antiscivolo e base in plastica resistente.

È perfetta anche per chi vuole migliorare postura e controllo motorio. Dopo pochi minuti si sente già il lavoro su core e caviglie. 🔹 Considerazioni finali In sintesi, un prodotto utile, divertente e di qualità: perfetto per chi fa sport, fisioterapia o semplicemente vuole migliorare l’equilibrio.
