    ZoomBoard ClassicZoomBoard Classic
    ZOOMBOARDING Makes It Simple, And Fun!!!

    Core training is exercise that is designed to strengthen your core muscles - the muscles in your torso, back and trunk. In addition to strengthening them, proper Core Training focuses on coordinating their movements to achieve balance. Traditionally, people have strengthened their core muscles doing crunches, sit-ups and push-ups - with little regard to balancing both themselves and their muscle groups. A better way to approach strengthening the core is through Core Training that is coupled with Balance Training.

    You don't need fancy gadgets for core training. Simple things like walking or balancing on a curb will start you on your way towards toning and coordinating these muscles to work together and give you better posture and alleviate back pain.

    But why not have fun while doing it? A Zoomboard is an ideal way to move at your own pace to develop your core muscles, and hone your balance sense which is also known by the fancy name of 'Proprioception'. Balance is a sense that can be learned (learning to walk), challenged (riding a bike), and improved (I saw a woman pushing a stroller the other day while riding a unicycle!).

    Another thing that practice on a Zoomboard will help you with is called "kinesthetic awareness". This is the ability to know where your body parts are in a 3 dimensional space. This ability is usually subconscious - something you don't have to put much thought into - but it can be enhanced by balance training on a Zoomboard.

    By mastering the Zoomboard alone, you are well on your way to increasing core strength and stability, and fine tuning your balance sense. Once you've done that, you can move on to 'Zoomboarding' with your eyes closed, while dribbling a basketball, or even playing catch will get your core in even better shape - and you'll have fun doing it! And in the process, you will gain better strength, posture, balance and sharpen your reflexes.

    Add a Zoomboard to your current fitness regime, and you'll be on your way to being a well balanced, more athletic and healthy person!


    Zoomboards Are Built To Last Out Of Top Quality Materials. They Feature:
    • 11 Ply Zero-Void Deck Material
    • Glued & Screwed Construction For Safety
    • High Quality Graphics That Are Painted On
    • Non-Skid Surfaces
    • Solid Wood Rocker
    • Safety Stops Fastened & Glued At Each End
    • Hardwood Rail For Durability And Safety
    • 6" Rocker Is Optimally Sized For Fun & Safety
    • Board Size: 10" (W) x 35.5" (L)
    • Backed By Our Money Back Guarantee!

    What Are They Used For? Balance boards are often used as a low-impact workout for lower leg and core muscles in physical therapy and as training aids for a variety of sports that require extra strength in 'core' muscles, ankle joints and upper & lower legs. They are also used specifically to improve balance, Kinesthetic awareness, postural stability, proprioception and coordination in athletes and non-athletes alike. Although they are often used as a Core Trainer in fitness programs, Zoomboards are just plain fun!
