When you are on the road and wanting to exercise, it’s oftentimes inconvenient or impossible to find a hotel gym. Now you can get a terrific workout right in your hotel room with the portable, inflatable Bender Ball.
The product was developed by fitness expert Leslee Bender, founder of “The Pilates Coach.” With over 24 years in the fitness industry, Leslee knows her stuff.
The Bender Ball is a “mini stability ball” that allows you to exercise your core in ways that can’t be accomplished by simple crunches. Combined with her effective method of Selective Stabilization, the Bender Method targets the upper abs, the sides and those hard-to-reach lower abs. Find out more about how it works at BenderBall.com. We are giving away a Bender Ball to one lucky reader of the Travel Product Guide.
All you need to do is leave a comment here in this post about your favorite place to travel, or your favorite workout method.
On Friday, September 5th at 6:00pm CT, a random winner will be selected to receive the inflatable, portable Bender Ball. Remember … only enter once and leave your real email address in the space provided so that we can contact you.
Check back often to the Travel Product Guide because we will be running a giveaway almost every week!

I try to vary things I do otherwise I get bored, but my favorite would have to be just getting on my bike and riding.
I walk for osteoprosis, use free weights, yoga and pilates, and assorted dvds…looking to get a bike soon
I love to travel to the Oregon coast
My favorite place to travel is Disneyland and my favorite workout is anything in the water, but I also do machines, weights, dance and use a stability ball.

our favorite place is Lake Tahoe.
My favorite workout method is swimming. I love to travel anywhere and everywhere.
DVD-driven workouts with free weights seem to work best — although the carry-on bag can get pretty tiring fairly quickly. At home, an exercise ball keeps things interesting by involving a certain amount of maintaining balance too…
Cleveland and Boston are my most preferred destinations — relatively speaking.
On trips, I do a lot of situps and pushups to keep in shape til I get home
