FAQs
Does the ball come with a pump?
No, the package does not include a pump. It can be easily inflated using a standard straw or a small manual ball pump.
Is this ball safe to use for pregnancy exercises?
Yes, many use this size for prenatal pelvic floor and stretching exercises, but please consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new fitness routine.
How do I adjust the firmness?
Simply remove the plug to let air out for a softer feel, or add more air with a pump to increase resistance and firmness.
Can this be used for heavy weight lifting?
This ball is designed for pilates, stretching, and core conditioning; it is not intended for use as a support for heavy weight lifting equipment.
How do I clean the ball?
Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the non-slip material.
What is the weight limit?
While it is made with durable anti-burst materials, it is designed for body-weight conditioning exercises rather than acting as a seat or weight-bearing support.
Troubleshooting
The ball loses air over time
Ensure the plug is fully inserted and pressed flush against the surface. If it continues to deflate, check the valve for any debris.
The ball feels slippery during exercise
Wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth to remove any dust or residue, which often restores the tackiness of the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your ball, use a standard straw or a manual pump to inflate it through the small valve aperture. Inflate to your preferred level of firmness; softer settings are generally better for support and stretching, while fully inflated settings are preferred for strength-building resistance. To care for your ball, wipe it down after each use with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove perspiration. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sharp objects to maintain the integrity of the material.
