Heres one of our more advanced exercises for the upper body. The added difficulty provided by the stability ball causes you to have to use your core so much more than in a regular push up. Give it a try, but be careful. This one can get dangerous if you don’t know your body.

What it works: Chest, Triceps, Shoulders and Core

Trainers tips: Brace your abdominals and keep your body as stiff as possible. You’re really going to need to keep tension everywhere throughout your body. Butt, quads, abs and mid back. It all needs to stay as tight as possible. If you can do 5 reps thats good. If you can do 10 reps, thats even better. If you’re getting 20 reps you’re an animal.
