Fat Loss- Bring New Life to Your Workout Using a Stability Ball
It's nice to see positive physical changes in the body.
If you need a clear, full body workout on a stability ball, then follow these moves.
You'll need a stability ball that fits you.
Okay, here are 5 moves on the ball to help reshape you: -Crunch With Dumbbells.
This is great for the upper abs.
Lie on the ball with your mid back centered.
Roll towards your feet slightly so you're in a slight incline position.
Extend you arms out in front of you in an angle.
Now lift your upper back off the ball contracting your upper abdominals.
-Ball Supported Push-Ups.
Get prone on the ball with arms extended like a push up position (your stomach should be centered over ball).
Lift your legs so that they do not touch the floor.
With hands on the deck, push up just likes a push up.
Do as many as 20 reps.
To make it harder, move the ball towards your toes.
This is great for the core and chest.
-Back Extension with Dumbbells.
Now roll your feet so they are on the floor (stay on your toes).
Put out your arms as if you are flying like superman.
Hold the dumbbells in each hand and lower your hands till they touch the floor.
Now contract your lower back simultaneously lift your arm up towards the ceiling.
Focus on contracting your back.
Keep the neck in a neutral position.
-Leg V-Kicks.
Lie on the floor with arms out on each side.
You should be positioned like the letter "T".
Place the ball between your legs at the ankle area.
Hold it by pressing against the ball and lift it so the ball is about a foot off the floor.
Lower the ball slowly to a five count till it almost touches the floor and then lift it up again.
This would be one rep.
Do 12-20 reps.
-Wall Sit With Dumbbells.
Place the ball behind you against the wall while you are standing upright.
You should lean on the ball and step forward enough so the knee joint flows over but not past your toes.
Hold a pair on dumbbells and put your arms out like a cross and hands are the same level as your shoulders.
Now, bend at the knees doing a squat while arms are lifted at your sides for additional calorie burn.
I don't know where I saw this sign but I remember what it said: "Muscles are hard to get and easy to lose; Fat is easy to get and hard to lose.
" Keep that in mind when you exercise.
Have patience, work hard and smart.
