As we finish week four, the focus is learning to improve joint stability and balance, placing more workload on our neuromuscular system. This workout incorporates the stability ball in a variety of extension exercises. It is the best tool to work your core, due to its curved shape. It is often difficult to perform extension exercises from the ground because it requires you to move from neutral. When you are on a ball, you are starting below neutral, giving you more comfort and range of motion.
This workout starts with some standing exercises holding the ball, then progresses to some seated mobility exercises. We will incorporate the ball in some bridging and prone hip extension exercises! Dumbbells will be used in several of these variations to keep you building muscle in the back and shoulders.
