Strengthen your deep muscles with a balance board
If you regularly switch between sitting and standing work, for example with a Worktrainer sit-stand desk, then you are already doing very well. Still, there is room for improvement. For example, have you ever noticed that you move relatively little with your lower body when you work standing up? You can change that with a balance board. Because the board wobbles as soon as you step on it, your whole body moves along in a natural way. This keeps you energetic and productive for longer, strengthens your muscles and reduces tension in the shoulders, back and neck.
Beloved balance boards for your desk
We sell different types of balance boards for adults and children. The boards have various shapes and sizes, and allow different movements. Popular models that you can buy at Worktrainer:
- The FitDisc has a diameter of 46 centimeters and a beautiful olive green colour. The two round boards are only connected in the middle, allowing you to move from front to back and from left to right. The non-slip stickers provide a good grip.
- The Steppie Balance Board is a board with a convex bottom that moves from left to right. The Steppie is 57 centimeters long and also available with a soft top.
- The Rocket resembles the Steppie in shape, but because the curvature at the bottom has a larger angle, you can make larger movements with it. The non-slip top ensures that you remain firm.
Other popular brands in our range are Pedalo, LifeSpan, Hovoboard and Ongo. Take a look and find your perfect balance board for standing work.
5 reasons why a balance board is so healthy
- It trains our deep muscles. The deep muscles lie below the superficial muscles, near our joints. The stronger the deep muscles are, the less chance we have of injuries and strains. Deep muscles are much more difficult (targeted) to train than the superficial muscles. This works very well with a balance board: the deep muscles have to work hard to compensate for the constant wobbling.
- In addition to the deep muscles, a balance board also trains the muscles in our feet, ankles and knees. All muscles that play an important role in walking and other movements.
- Many sports equipment and active exercise tools strengthen the lower ór the upper body; with a balance board you train muscles in the entire body.
- Regularly switching between stable and unstable standing improves posture.
- Balance boards are also suitable for sporty workouts. You can find inspiration for fun, intensive exercises here.
