Hands on Stability Ball

Try this exercise to stimulate your neuromuscular system. Your body is used to doing push-ups on a stable surface, so shake things up a bit, literally, and put the hands on an unstable surface like a stability ball.You can make this exercise even more difficult with one leg on the ground and one in the air.

  1. Lie with the chest on top of a stability ball, legs out straight and slightly apart behind you, toes curled under on the floor.
  2. Grasp the ball on the sides with an open palm. Keeping the back flat and abs tight, push the chest off the ball.
  3. Slowly lower to a light touch on the ball and then repeat.
