Bouncing On My New Balance Ball Chair

After my post about Re-Activating Your Lifestyle, I was surprised how many of you also feel stuck in a less-active lifestyle. It's tough with desk jobs and other sedentary responsibilities (hello, blogging!).

So we're going to work on making small changes. Little by little we're going to sneak more movement into our days. Take the stairs more often, park far away from your office, stretch while you wait for a fax... and read my review of my new Gaiam Balance Ball Chair!
I love this chair! Surprisingly it doesn't feel weird once you've sat on it for a few hours. Now I'm used to it and am loving the benefits.

Positives
- You can't help but sit up straight
- I'm much more alert throughout the day (That regular afternoon drowsiness is no more!)
- I can bounce all the time!
- It is funny looking (It gets so much attention! Everyone want to sit in it!)

Negatives
- It is tough to change the height of the chair (You could release some air out of the ball, but it doesn't make that much of a difference- to make it taller you can purchase accessories)

In case you're interested check out the chair on the Gaiam website or ebay! I reccommend it!
