Are you looking to get your core muscles going? Then an exercise ball could be for you!
These popular and versatile workout tools are said to be good at helping you to work on your core muscles.
There are a variety of exercises that can be tackled using an exercise ball, which target different parts of your body as part of your healthy living routine.
Fun to use, and available in different colours, exercise balls could be a great addition to your exercise menu, allowing you to carry out certain yoga exercises, for example.
Amazing abs!
If it's your abs - abdominal muscles - you want to develop, so that you'll have stronger muscles in this part of your body, an exercise ball could help.
There are a variety of exercises you can try which are designed to help with this area of the body.
They can help with definition, playing a part in creating what some would consider a more attractive belly. At this time of year, which sees many of us displaying our skin on the beach, this idea can be particularly desirable!
Fantastic Fushi options
Exercise balls are just some of the fantastic yoga equipment options available here at Fushi (other examples include yoga mats and yoga bags). Currently we sell two yoga balls, each a different size but both made by Dragonfly.
The slightly lower priced option is a 65CM ball which is bust-resistant and made from vinyl. It comes with a pump, too. Another ball, which costs only slightly more, has all these features but a larger size of 75CM.
One great thing about these balls is that in the unlikely event of a puncture, they deflate at a slow speed, helping to prevent injury.
Practical measures
Be sure to find and follow the right advice when you're going to be using an exercise ball: Expert classes are a good way to ensure you're doing things in a way that will avoid injury, so we'd recommend you start your exercise ball experience by attending one, so you get the low-down on this fantastic workout option!

- Which is the best oil for hair growth and thickness?Apr 22, 2021Thank you Emiliano for your comment. In this blog we are referring more to oils, more so than butters and while we agree with you Shea is an excellent emollient for hair, it's consistency is more buttery and it is used more as a leave-in remedy to smooth hair texture. We have suggested Coconut oil as it helps slow down hair loss by penetrating deep into your hair shaft to prevent protein loss, which in turn prevents breakage. When applied to your scalp, it simultaneously moisturises and removes build-up around your hair follicles to encourage hair growth and is one of base oils always used in Ayurveda for hair treatments. As this post is more focused for hair and not for skin, the comedogenic scale applies to skin/pores and not hair follicles. Thank you again for your feedback.
- Which is the best oil for hair growth and thickness?Apr 22, 2021Hello Zu, yes hair loss can be very stressful and this in turn amplifies the cause almost.. Perhaps with Covid, your system may have been depleted of nutrients and fighting the virus can take its toll on your immune system, so sometimes our hair and skin suffer when we have been ill. We really believe in oils for scalp massage as the best way to revive the growth and help regenerate the follicles. It may be also worth at looking at internal supplements and making sure you are getting enough of omega oils, perhaps plant based such as nuts and seeds in your diet. For external oil treatment, would recommend the Really Good Hair oil which we create with Brahmi, this herb is known to help bring the scalp back to health and improve growth. Biotin is also a good vitamin to take as a supplement to help with hair growth so do look into that. So hope these tips will be helpful for you.
- Which is the best oil for hair growth and thickness?Apr 22, 2021I, am very surprised that your article did not include Organic Shea Butter and that coconut oil, is your number one choice for hair growth and thickness. According to the comedogenic scale, coconut oil, has a rating of (4), on a scale from (0), to (5), on clogging your pores. Why would anyone put coconut oil, on their hair or skin knowing the pores will get clogged up. Shea Butter, on the other hand has a (0), rating on the comedogenic scale, which is great for dry hair and skin and won't clog up your pores.
- Which is the best oil for hair growth and thickness?Mar 29, 2021Thank you for your very informative article. I suffered COVID in December, 2020, and in February I started experience extreme hair loss and all my hair jus falls like a person who is under going Chemo therapy. It's very depressing. Had to cut off all my hair and even the little that is left is falling off daily not sure what to do. Please suggest something.
- Carrot Oil for Face Mar 15, 2021Hello :) You can use carrot oil only in small drops on your skin in the morning/during the day since it is highly potent. Carrot oil is rich in vitamins and is a very effective moisturiser. You can also mix a few drops of Carrot Oil with your favorite face cream. You can do that at least twice a week or include it in your daily skincare routine. Hope this helps.
- Carrot Oil for Face Mar 15, 2021Can I use the carrot oil in the day time? Because I am using Vitamin c serum in the night. Please advise. Thanks
