Today is my most favorite. The stability ball is the best tool to work your core, due to its curved shape. However, we will be working to stabilize and balance in this workout, placing more workload on our neuromuscular system.
This workout starts on the ground, with the ball used as a supportive tool. Experience a new kind of "crunch" with the feet elevated on the ball to bring the lower back immediately to the ground. Moving from here to bridges, to planks, to back bends, to using the ball as a weight bench, you will experience some interesting variations with added balance challenges. Dumbbells will be incorporated into several of these variations to keep you building muscle.
