Stability Ball Body Saw
A forearm plank on a stability ball with the feet on the floor: the forearms roll the ball a little forward and back while the body stays one line.
How to do it
Setup
Forearms on top of a stability ball, feet on the floor behind, body straight from head to heels.
Steps
- Roll the ball forward a short way, the arms reaching out.
- Keep the hips in line with the shoulders and heels.
- Draw the forearms back until the elbows are under the shoulders again.
Common mistakes
Hips sagging as the ball rolls out: shorten the roll. Piking the hips to pull the ball back: the forearms draw it in with the body straight. Feet sliding back: set the toes firmly before each rep.
Breathing
Inhale rolling out, exhale pulling back.
