Frequently Asked Questions
Almost everything you want to know has been asked before.
Balance Boards
Are balance boards safe for beginners?
Yes—start with a wide, low-profile board on a nonslip surface and progress gradually. Our Beginner’s Guide outlines step-by-step safety tips.
How do you test products?
Each board undergoes a 30-day trial measuring build quality, stability, versatility, and user feedback. We combine lab data with real-world workouts.
Do affiliate links affect rankings?
No. Reviews are written and scored before any affiliate partnerships. We reject commissions from products that don’t meet our standards.
Can balance-board training replace the gym?
A board enhances core, ankle, and proprioceptive training but doesn’t fully replace strength or cardio equipment. It’s best used as a powerful supplement.
Where should I start if I have an injury?
Consult your healthcare provider first, then follow our Rehab Track articles that include physio-approved, low-impact drills.
