Resources for "The Habits of Healthy Aging" Lecture Series @ Jones Library
Equipment for Balance Training and Mobility
You can order a Softmed Medicine ball from Perform Better here. I prefer the green 2.2 lb ball, but if you have shoulder issues or feel that you need to be careful, you might go with the yellow 1.1 lb ball.
If you call Erin Harris at 1-800-556-7464 x122, and tell her you’re ordering the ball for this lecture series, she’ll give you a 10% discount off the cost.
I also sell these balls at cost, so you can get one from me as well.
