Full details
The Core Balance 65cm Gym Ball is designed for fitness enthusiasts, office workers, and physical therapy patients who want to improve core stability and posture through versatile exercise.

FAQs
Is the ball safe if it gets punctured?
Yes. The anti-burst construction ensures that if the ball is punctured, it will slowly deflate rather than popping suddenly.
How much weight can the ball support?
The Core Balance 65cm Gym Ball has a maximum weight capacity of 250kg.
What is included in the box?
The box contains the gym ball, a hand pump, a tape measure, a spare stopper plug, and a removal tool.
Can I use this as an office chair?
Absolutely. It is an excellent tool for encouraging active sitting and improving posture throughout the workday.
Why is the ball smaller than 65cm after I inflate it?
The material needs time to expand. Inflate it partially, wait 24 hours for the material to stretch, and then finish inflating.
How should I clean the gym ball?
Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Ensure it is completely dry before storing or using it again.
Troubleshooting
The ball does not reach 65cm after inflation.
PVC material stretches over time; inflate to the maximum comfortable capacity, let it sit for 24 hours, then top off with more air.
The plug is difficult to remove.
Use the provided removal tool to safely wedge under the plug cap to avoid damaging the ball surface.
The ball feels slippery.
Wipe the surface with a damp, soapy cloth to remove any manufacturing residue or dust, then dry thoroughly.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Initial Inflation: Use the provided hand pump to inflate the ball. It is recommended to fill it to approximately 80% initially and let it sit for 24 hours to allow the PVC to stretch before inflating to the full 65cm diameter.
- Using the Tape Measure: Use the included tape measure to ensure you achieve the correct 65cm diameter, as over-inflation can stress the seams.
- Placement: Ensure the area is free of sharp objects or debris that could puncture the material.
- Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the PVC.
- Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which may cause the material to become brittle over time.
