Stability Ball Push-Up

Push-up position with the feet on the ball; lower the chest to the floor and press back up, keeping the body straight.

How to do it

Setup

Push-up plank with the FEET on the ball, hands under the shoulders.

Steps

  1. Lower the chest to just above the floor.
  2. Keep the ball dead still with a rigid trunk.
  3. Press back to straight arms.

Common mistakes

Ball drifting: slower reps, stiffer hips. Hips sagging: the elevated feet punish it doubly. Hands too far forward: under the shoulders.

Breathing

Inhale down, exhale on the press.
