GET RID OF THE BOSU BALL.
Stability is learning how to manage changes in the forces acting on our body so that we can maintain a position. It also acts as a rate limiter to a higher force output.
We can train stability in a lot of different ways. The most common, is to move from a two legged stance, to a single leg stance.
The surface that we use to do our balance and stability work on makes a huge difference. Most of us struggle to stand on one foot as it is. Adding a BOSU ball to the equation just makes for an unnecessarily hard environment. It will also make the exercise extremely difficult to load, therefore decreasing the effectiveness of loading the tissue you are targeting.
Think about the surfaces that you most commonly interact with. Flat ground is the most common. When do you interact with the surface of a BOSU ball?
Prioritize getting good at standing on one leg on a flat surface first. You’ll see a larger effect on your training, than doing BOSU Squats.
