  • February Stability Ball Challenge!

    If you're looking for a new challenge that will work on your core and help you with stability and strength, this is for you!!

    Incorporating the stability ball into your usual routine will challenge your body in new ways and break up the monotony of exercises that have gone a bit stale.

    Need some ideas about which exercises to use with a stability ball? YouTube has all kinds of videos!

    YOUTUBE STABILITY BALL EXERCISES

    More SB exercises can be found by clicking on the following, SPARK PEOPLE


    Exercises that count in this challenge include, but are NOT limited to, the following:

    lying hamstring curls
    tricep extensions
    reverse crunches
    lying leg press
    push ups
    jackknife
    stretching
    slow swim
    side plank
    seated leg extension
    bridge ball squats
    rows
    stability ball exercise tapes/DVD's

    Basically, any exercise that you do using your stability ball will count!


    NOTE: Please state how many minutes you are committing to for the month in this thread and then check in at least twice a week. Make sure you state the days you worked out along with its minutes. At the end of the month, I will tally up the minutes and post the goalies in the Celebration Forum and hand out awards!


    HAVE FUN!, STAY COMMITTED, EARN THE AWARD!!!
