Tips from Heidi
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.
