Stability Ball 20 minute Workout
Being fit can be quick and easy and it’s never too late to adopt an exercise program to improve your cardiovascular system. Taking as little as 20 minutes a day, Melissa Hall recommends the following exercises with light weights and a stability ball. Bear in mind that good posture and form are essential.
2) Bicep Curl (with stability ball):
works the arms – to eliminate chicken wings – and core muscles Sit atop the stability ball holding the hand weights at each side with your arms extended parallel to your torso. Palms should be facing forward. Lift the weights slowly, bending at the elbow until your elbows are bent at 90 degrees. Keep you back straight and your shoulders relaxed. Repeat 10-12 times in 3 sets.
3) Squats (with stability ball):
works glutes and thighs Prop your stability ball between your buttocks and a wall with feet at shoulder width. Balancing your weight against the stability ball, slowly bend at the knees until they are at 90-degrees. Then, slowly straighten the legs. Keep your back straight. Repeat 10-12 times in 3 sets.
For added benefit to your core muscles, introduce the SLENDERTONE® FLEX® abdominal belt to your workout.
