Make Better Use Out Of Your Stability Ball

stability ball exercise by kaleena lawlessA lot of people think that the stability ball is only good for your abs, well think again! The ball can be used as a weight bench, to stretch with and to support lower body exercises like wall squats and lunges.

Try This:

Use the ball to sit on for your upper body exercises like the shoulder press, tricep overhead extension and bicep curls. You may think that sitting down to lift weights is getting off easy but it's the exact opposite! Sitting down only means you can't use your legs to get the weight over your head, which is so common that most people do this without even realizing it.

The benefit of using the ball instead of say, a chair is that the stability ball creates instability. By flexing your abs to stay on you will be getting in additional core work with every exercise.

Get On The Ball!
