Lindsay's Review: BOSU Powerstax
BOSU is a staple in the equipment toolbox for most trainers and now it' s more versatile than ever with the new Powerstax set. Powerstax are stackable platforms that can raise the height of the BOSU in 4-inch levels to add a new dimension of training and skills. And the versatility doesn't stop there; you can also fill each platform with up to 35 pounds of water for a completely new piece of equipment. Adding Powerstax to my clients' programs has enhanced the benefits of the BOSU training experience for all levels of fitness. www.BOSU.com
