Ab work
Heidi gave me 2 different exercises to do on the
Resist-A-Ball. The first was to be seated on the ball and then
do an upper and lower body combo crunch. My feet didn't actually
leave the ground for the lower body but I could squeeze my abs
and really feel them working. By working on the ball, it brings
into play all of the stabilizer muscles and works them too.
The second ab exercise was to put the Resist-A-Ball under my
knees and do lower body crunches. It forces the legs to remain
at about a 90 degree angle and you can't cheat. I could feel
a huge difference in my lower abs trying to do this one. The
movement was smaller but very effective. I think you're using
all abs on this one because the legs are focused on keeping the
ball under your knees. You can also do an upper and lower
body crunch combo with this one.
