About the Natural Fitness Zero Impact Program:
One of Natural Fitness's founding principles is to tread lightly on the earth. They aim to offset the environmental impact that results from the manufacturing and distribution of their products. To achieve this, the company created their Zero Impact Program (ZIP). While Natural Fitness is always looking for new and creative ways to offset their eco-footprint, here's is what the company is currently doing: - Plant-A-Tree Initiative: For every product sold, Natural Fitness will fund the planting of a tree, which can remove up to 2,000 pounds of pollution from the atmosphere. Through various partner organizations, the company hopes to improve the lives of people around the world by implementing sustainable land-use programs utilizing the trees provided. Locations for planting trees vary; but past projects have been conducted throughout Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Each location and project is researched and developed to implement the most effective plan possible; one that is best for the people and eco-system involved.
- Offsetting the eco-footprint of their employees and offices.
- Offering the most environmentally-friendly products available.
- Use a "green" web host company that utilizes solar panels to power its data center and office.
- Partnering with like-minded companies to raise public awareness about the environmental problems created through use of fossil fuels and other non-sustainable practices.
- Using recycled content paper in business cards, letterhead, envelopes, labels, checks, and printer/copier paper. All of the product packaging and inserts that Natural Fitness uses are made with recycled paper.
- Using recycled packaging materials and boxes in the company's warehouse. They also pack with old newspapers and other recyclable paper products.
- Helped create the Chicago Biodiesel Co-op, which educated, promotes, and produces locally-derived biofuels.
- Greening the company's comprehensive recycling program and using natural light when possible.
- Spearheaded an ambitious recycling program for the 500,000 square foot office building Natural Fitness occupies, along with 60 companies.
I love my new ball! I had previously purchased a cheap one and was very disappointed. This ball is so much better than the lower quality ones. It is very thick and the texture is soft feeling. It also doesn't collect hair and dirt like the other one did which is very nice when you have pets. I love that it is a natural material. When I wanted to buy one I didn't think I would be able to meet that criteria, but this ball does! I couldn't get the ball to inflate using the hand pump that comes with it. I don't know if I was doing something wrong or what but I finally got out the foot pump from the cheap ball I bought and used that. It went much more quickly! I actually bought two of these (green for me and red for husband) and am very glad I did. The colors are great, too which is a big factor to me. I would definetly recommend the ball to anyone!

I hate to say that I chose this exercise ball because it was an awesome color in the photo. And I gotta admit, in real life, it is an awesome color that goes well with our decor.
I am 5'5" with a long torso/short legs and, unfortunately, this ball is too large for me to do most of the seated exercises. Currently, we have it partially deflated and use it to soothe our cranky newborn who will passes out after we hold him all swaddled up and bounce on it.
As a former gym rat and physio therapy victim, the ball is great. Set up is easy, but it does take awhile for the plastic to soften enough that you can get it round and for the stink to go away. It does not have that cheap, slick GAIM feel that collects near vicinity dirt and hair. Its slightly textured surface has a better grip.
I do like it a lot and would love to buy the same one but in a smaller size, but, alas, they do not manufacture it in the same color. So sad!

This ball arrived and my 14 year old daughter who is generally weak and out of shape pumped it up with the hand pump that came with it in about 15 minutes while watching TV without much effort. It is very sturdy and I trust it to not break. I got the red ball because I am 5'8". The ball looks small to me, but it works perfectly. My old ball was annoying because it would collect dust and get sticky if you didn't wash it (yuck). But this one does not collect dust or get sticky.
