is a balance board.
It's just a round circular board that's balanced on a smaller circle...they come in wood or plastic (mine's plastic & was only $12 in TJ Maxx). You can use it just to balance, you can also do squats on it & do variations of diff balance exercises (ie balance on one leg). Great for your legs (especially calves) and also your "core" since you have to use those muscles to stabilize your whole body.
Highly recommended.
