Get more bounce in your workout with exercise balls

Features and Tips

By Michele Kulbel Special to The Seattle Times

ALAN BERNER / THE SEATTLE TIMES David Rea of Urban Kinetics in Seattle balances a 20-pound bar while moving an exercise ball with his foot.

The stretching area of your average health club these days looks more like a nursery school for grown-ups. There are weighted balls, enormous bouncy balls of various sizes, foam tubes and smaller, squishy balls. The machines and free weights can be intimidating enough, but the friendlier-looking balls just seem mystifying.

Exercise your choice in elections today

Features and Tips

The Virginian-Pilot © May 4, 2004

The biennial exercise in selecting leaders for the city councils and school boards in South Hampton Roads starts at 6 a.m. today. Fortunately, competition flourishes.
