Ratings and reviews

nice way to start getting into healthier living practices. nice motivator to get out of the gaming chair. start here and eventually move onto more fitness activities. can definitely feel the need for change after doing the exercises.

Can it cure hyperlordosis?

Hyperextension or back extension is the best exercise for the back. This exercise will build muscles along your spine. It requires just a balance ball.
