He credits the balls with restoring range of motion and easing low back pain and shared the method with Kate Fitzpatrick of New Life Fitness World in Cedar Rapids who began incorporating them into her aerobics classes.
Fitzpatrick notes strengthened backs through workouts using exercise balls or physioballs. The vinyl spheres, also called Swiss balls or posture balls, are now common tools in fitness workshops for strengthening and rehabilitation.
