Distributed in the UK by GymKit UK, the Ugi ball combines the squish of a beanbag with the bounce-back of a stress ball. The balls – which come in pink and lime green – are used in a 30-minute class-based workout. Developed by kinesiologist and personal trainer Sara Shear, the functional workout engages the entire body in every routine, involving hoisting, balancing on and swinging the ball for a non-stop 30-minute workout.

The balls come in different weights and can be used on the gym floor, with a PT, in bootcamp or in a class.

Ugi (‘U Got It’) is part of the product portfolio of equipment-based education company Mad Dogg Athletics – the creators of Spinning, Cross Core and Peak Pilates. GymKit UK’s Ugi master instructors are available to deliver training courses throughout the UK.
