Stability Ball Back Extension
Hips on the ball, feet braced against the floor or wall; raise the torso to a straight line and lower with control.
How to do it
Setup
Hips on the ball, feet braced against the floor or a wall, hands at the temples.
Steps
- Raise the torso to one straight line with the legs.
- Pause briefly at the top.
- Lower over the ball with control.
Common mistakes
Hyperextending past the line: straight is the top. Ball rolling: brace the feet wider or against a wall. Fast pumping: the erectors like slow.
Breathing
Exhale rising, inhale lowering.
