Step by Step inflation instructions for your Live Infinitely Forever Flex anti-burst exercise ball.
1. Remove your Forever Flex yoga ball from the box and plastic wrap unfolding the ball while you do this.
2. Check the general condition of the yoga ball for any rips or punctures before inflating. Don’t be alarmed if the ball has creases in the material, as these will go away after inflating and allowing the ball to stretch.
3. Next remove the included hand pump and accessory bag which includes an extra air plug and plug remover tool.
4. Slide the “U” shaped air plug remover tool under the plug that is already inside the ball to gain access to the air opening.
5. Place the air nozzle of the included hand pump into the opening and fill the exercise ball to about 80% of its published size and allow the ball to stretch to 24 hours before inflating to its final diameter. Once the desired level is reached remove the pump and quickly reinstall the white plug into your yoga ball.
6. After allowing the ball to stretch place the ball against a wall and measure how far away the further most edge is. At full inflation this number should be the size of your selected yoga ball. (55cm, 65cm etc.)
7. A properly sized yoga ball should allow your knees to be at a 90-degree angle while sitting on it with your thighs parallel to the floor.
NOTE: DO NOT over inflate as this could damage the yoga ball.

I was taking online classes from 9 - 5 so I was having to sit for long periods at a time. kzfaq.infoUgkxEhgucmXpcAGYh8fatGFEnOK2V97VIwhG After the first day in a regular table chair, I thought about an exercise ball and ordered one that night. It came the next day! My hips, legs, back and butt couldn't have been happier! I'm almost 5'11" and I ordered the largest size and it was perfect for me. I also have RLS (restless legs) and this helped so much.Pumping it up was a little challenging and definitely gives you a good arm workout, (I'm a 62 yo woman) but it's very doable. Getting the tape centered with the hole to inflate it and then getting the pin back in was also a little tricky. But I love my new "chair" and I love the torquiose color. Hopefully it will also get used for exercise. 😁

Hey Kaori, The plug is just let loose a bit during the stretching period to make it easier to get out to finish inflating it. After it is fully inflated you can press the plug in fully so it is flush. If it is a bit to difficult to push the full way in you can use a bit of soap on it to make it a bit easier. I hope this answers your question and if you have any more, please don't hesitate to ask!

Hey anoited1980, I am 5'11" and the 65cm is perfect for me! Your weight won't matter with the Forever Flex ball since it can hold up to 2,000 lbs. If you're looking to use it primarily for workouts I would definitely say 65cm will be perfect for you. If you want it as a desk chair, you can go up to 75cm. Hope this answered your question!

Hey idk if you will answer me, but i bought a 65 cm, now im waiting 24 hours to continue inflating it but already at 55 cm it feels like it would blow up if i inflate it more. Maybe i just never inflated and i shouldnt be worried. Cuz another 10 cm seems big but i know those balls are made with really strong materials

I let the ball full one night, but I realise that it was way too inflated, I have a 65cm and I thing it was almost 75/80cm. The problem is that now I when i deflate the ball to the right size, it looks floppy, do you think the ball material will recover its initial size?

I wanted to donate an exercise ball, but I did not have the written instructions only the inflator which had a sticker simply warning about over-inflation being dangerous. Your website explains how to inflate - and not over-inflate. Knowing this I searched but beforehand found videos that ONLY explain how to but air into a ball. Apparently if over-inflation does occur the ball may explode then or later and the user likely be injured!!

Hey Candi, The published size of an exercise ball ie 65cm, 75cm etc is always referring to the diameter of the ball. You can translate that to the circumfrence if you are measuring that instead. Just simply multiply the diameter by 3.14 and it will be almost dead on. For example, the 65cm diameter will have around 204cm circumference. 65x3.14= 204cm
