Balance Ball Chair Day 10:

10 days ago my 'Balance Ball Chair' arrived for me to assemble and pump up...since then it's been an interesting experience learning how to balance while working.  I will say this is not a fool proof - you will NEVER slouch again - option.  I guess there is nothing that will prevent you from slouching but this is a start.  I read that just by sitting on this chair you can burn up to 600 calories a month - just sitting!  Tray thinks I'm crazy because you can't burn calories just sitting but one thing is certain - this option definitely makes you more aware of your posture.  I was trying for one day to go in to a crunch position every time the phone was ringing and when someone answered, get out of the crunch position but it got to be too difficult to sound normal when my client's answered the phone.  I will say one thing, I am not laying at 45 degrees in my chair with my feet on my computer tower by 5:00 PM anymore.  We'll see if my abs get nice and sculpted SIMPLY by sitting!  As long as my fashion is a bit better than the woman in the photo, I think I'm ahead of the game :)

  1. Actually really good. Two days ago was the first day since I got the ball chair that I decided I needed a little break. It's a bit harder than you can imagine sitting on a ball hehe. I feel that it makes me sit straight up more often but it's not a fool proof thing...You DEF slouch in a ball chair!
