The treadmill is a clothes hanger, the thigh master protects the wall behind the door, the exercise wheel fit perfectly on the wheelbarrow, the resistance bands make great tie downs, but I can’t really think of a use for half a ball.
Pull on the bands of gravitational resistance hard enough and they will reverse field, pulling you INSIDE the dark sphere, while murmuring “It’s full of stars…”
I already bought this for the same price a few months back, and I have to say, these are awesome and well worth every freaking penny get it if you have any kind of a gym or even if this is your only workout item, I highly highly recommend it. And no, it will not make a margarita, but I’ll make you barf up a margarita.
I like how in half of the depicted exercises it’s literally just acting as a cushion, with no balance-related or resistance aspect at all. And the resistance bands are used in one out of nine depicted exercises.
FWIW, on Morning Save they have this PLUS an URBNFit 12" Back Pain Relief Wheel with Yoga Stretching Strap (which itself sells for $38.99 on Amazon) for $10 more (a total of $49.99) [or only 5 bucks more if you have VMP and use the discount code].
I think I’ll go with that one, though I might not use the wheel much (but same for all my exercise equipment)!
@Kyeh I guess I’m a little tired and slow tonight. What assumptions are you ASSUMING that I’m making?
I’m having trouble following the logical intent of your dialog. For instance, how does “not making assumptions” help me “tell that a hot woman [is or] isn’t also highly intelligent”?
@Kyeh Saying that she looks like she doesn’t have back pain implies I think she is not an author? There is no logic to that statement. But you seem to be on more of an emotional rant, anyway.
Furthermore, it wasn’t me that looked at a GIF of someone who appears to be a teenager or not much older and referred to her as “hot”. People with those tendencies tend to be classified as pedophiles. Just sayin’.
Anyone else order this and still not received it? My order status and FedEx tracking tell me it hasn’t even shipped yet now after the listed delivery window, but Meh customer service has not provided any info.
Half ball? Is this the Lance Armstrong version?
U-R-B-N too quiet in here. Where’s all the snark? Join the resistance!
I used to play in a detachable resistance band.
@ExtraMedium Trying to workshop my regular ball jokes to half-ball jokes.
If I had half the balls Meh has, I’d have this whole product.
@ExtraMedium
On CBS tv, the FBI keeps trying to detach all those right-wing white male terrorist groups.
@ExtraMedium You are just full of air. (There is that snarky enough for you? )
@ExtraMedium
Excellent!!!
@phendrick Yep. Every week, Dick Wolf could be using AI to tweak the same basic recipe on any or all 3 shows.
all I’m sayin’ is this makes the chainsaw juggling act a lot more exciting.
*coming up next- the roomba floor mop.
Those with balance issues call that the half ball of death!
@ironcheftoni Exactly. It was while using one of these balls that I developed my rap persona. Pop A Hip

@hchavers For making half a baby?
I thought my screen reader said “Have a ball!” and I was ready to party. Disappointed to realize it was “half a ball”.
@phendrick I’ll piggyback on my own post here. Very late I added a post (look FAR down) about a MUCH BETTER DEAL for a lot of people.https://meh.com/forum/topics/urbnfit-core-strength-and-balance-half-ball-trainer-w-detachable-resistance-bands-1#63d174b5dfb2a224e2b65e8f

KRULL! A SKULL! BRETT HULL! AWESOME!
@bugger How are the bands and clips holding up on yours? That seems to be the biggest complaint on the Amazon reviews.
@phendrick so far so good. Only been 3 months but I don’t see any wear and tear as of yet
@bugger TFA (thanks from after)
I was looking for a new way to break bones.
Can you glue two of them together to make a whole ball?
I see the prudes missed their chance to relabel this the half-sphere. Are you happy now? The juvenile delinquents are delighted.
Balance Half Ball did a great cover of Detachable Penis.

I’ve been using a Bosu ball in Pilates and I was thinking it would be cool to have one. $40 was the right amount to pull the trigger.
Does this come with classified documents?

@phendrick My total there was $48.70; here it would have been $43.29 without the $40 (?) wheel.

@phendrick She’s an author? Wonder what she wrote?
At least back pain does not seem to be an issue for her.
@phendrick You actually think hot women can’t be authors?
@Kyeh Actually, I just thought they were hired to be influencers. Anyway, not sure how you tell if an author is hot from the bio on a dust jacket.
@phendrick Well, how do you tell that a hot woman isn’t also highly intelligent?
@Kyeh IDK, how?
@phendrick Start by not making assumptions, maybe!
@Kyeh I guess I’m a little tired and slow tonight. What assumptions are you ASSUMING that I’m making?
I’m having trouble following the logical intent of your dialog. For instance, how does “not making assumptions” help me “tell that a hot woman [is or] isn’t also highly intelligent”?
@phendrick You said:
Implying that she is not likely to be an author. Because … why?
@Kyeh @phendrick Hey, isn’t that Amanda Newman? I loved her book, “Women Are From Venus, Men Are From Hell,” about troglodytes with Y chromosomes!

@phendrick Thanks for pointing that out.

Can I refer to you as Ms. Yeh?

I feel like this would not be a good fit for me, due to the fact URBN reminds me of “urban”, and I do not live in an urban area.
They missed a real sponsorship opportunity with this one.
You buy those from Hunter, or they are free if you buy enough of his artwork.

@obxer I got a couple of emails with excuses but both of mine arrived today. While the rest of you suffer with half a ball, I have a whole ball
