Ball Bearings Written by Jeff Compton, Stefan Scott and Matthew Tyler Some time ago I was sent an advance copy of Ball Bearings and I was delighted with its lay-out, illustrations, practicality and clarity. I certainly stand by my comments, which appear on the back of the book.

"This is quite simply the best guide on exercise ball use that I've seen. If you own, or intend to own an exercise ball, you will multiply its value many times by using Ball Bearings!"

I also endorse the comments of Trish Scott, who is a Fitball® Master Trainer.

"Two thumbs up! User friendly, comprehensive and not a body part missed. Finally a book of ball exercise that challenges the mind and body and gives endless progamming ideas. Just what we needed. Thank you!"

Ball Bearings is written by a personal trainer, a professor and a physiotherapist and I think they achieved something we always strive for at Speakwell, namely, taking solid scientific information and presenting it in an accessible and interesting manner.

Every time I read part of Ball Bearings I want to get on a fitness ball and try some of their ideas. Another thing which endears Ball Bearings to me is it is written with wit and humor, and you could actually enjoy the book if you didn't do the exercises.

As the book notes, Ball Bearings can help improve your
