Wobble board blues

I started to title this post as you have got to be kidding me but instead went with the wobble board blues.

Why, I just read this about using my wobble board:

"Once you can stand on the wobble disk for three minutes without falling, you are ready to move on".

Three minutes, are you kidding, me I can only balance for 3 seconds and those are not of the one mississippi type, they are more like 1,2,3 if you know what I mean.

So I guess I have a lot of work to do.

One other thing I bought the GoFit Wobble board from buy.com

and it comes with a core performance DVD that "provides challenging exercises led by Mark Verstegen, trainer of professional athletes", can't wait to watch that to see how much more this humbles me. That is if I watch it. Will keep you posted.

Well, Mike... I followed your lead and bought one too. Though the way these things go maybe I should've just waited until you were done with yours. :) I expect I'll be closer to 3 seconds than 3 minutes as well.

I made my own, just using a board with a ball underneath it; the smaller the ball, the easier it is, so I worked my way up (you have to use squishy balls that deform, or it just shoots out from under you - which teaches you how to catch yourself when falling, I guess).
