Terra-Core Balance Trainer Review

Today I am partnering with Terra-Core to review their balance trainer. I have to say, I was so excited to get my hands on a Terra-Core. I’ve seen this piece of equipment floating around Instagram fitness accounts and it’s even been featured on Shark Tank.

If you’ve been following me for some time then you know I prefer exercising in the comfort of my own home (or driveway). I don’t have anything against gyms, we are even getting ready to open one. It’s really just the stage of life I’m in. Being a mom of two young kids, it’s easier for me to squeeze a workout in during their nap time or while they are watching a movie. The Terra-Core is perfect because it doesn’t take up much space and has a lot to offer. Plus, it weighs only 28lbs so I can easily take it to meet a client for a training session.

Now, I know what you’re thinking, “What is it?”
A lot of people like to compare it to a BOSU balance trainer but it is honestly SO much more. I would say it is like a cross between a BOSU and a bench or step, plus some extra features that help you get a well rounded workout.

What I really love is that both sides are functional. The top is an inflatable dome that helps improve balance and muscle stability. Don’t worry, the package comes with an air pump and clear instructions on how to inflate it. It claims to engage your muscles more than if you were doing the same exercise on a flat surface. Let me tell you, I believe it because it didn’t take long for my muscles to feel the burn. One thing to note is that if it ever feels too unstable then you can simply pump more air into the dome to make it a little bit easier.

The bottom has two built in handles that I like to use for planks, push-ups, and rows. There are also two metal bars and some grooves where you can attach resistance bands. This is a brilliant addition because it really adds another dimension to your workout.

Other great features worth noting: lifetime warranty, set up and exercise DVD, and fitness app.
