What exactly is a Pono Board? Do you surf on it? Fling it? Predict the future by letting ancient Hawaiian spirits telepathically move aqua-colored balls around on its sleek wooden surface until your destiny is revealed?
Nope, it's none of these things. A Pono Board is a kinder, gentler balance board that can be used to add a bit of instability to various exercises in a way that is mercifully unlikely to send you sprawling on your face in an ignominious heap of kluzitude.
Ta da!
According to The Pono People, it was designed to feel like a beach workout, actively engaging the core, but not too difficult.
But that's not why I eagerly agreed to acquire and review a springy thingy of my very own. (Disclaimer: I didn't pay for it). What was the reason?
The Pono Board is also designed to function as a stand-up desk accessory, yay!
Here's some more info and a verdict on how I like my Pono Board.
