| Straight-back Jackknife | ||
| Get into pushup position--your hands set slightly wider than and in line with your shoulders--but instead of placing your feet on the floor, rest your shins on a Swiss ball. With your arms straight and your back flat, your body should form a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles. | |
| Keeping your back straight (don't round it), roll the Swiss ball as close to your chest as possible by contracting your abs and pulling it forward. Pause, then return the ball to the starting position by rolling it backward. Perform each set in a rhythmic tempo for 40 to 50 seconds continuously. (Don't worry about the number of reps; just try to maintain an even speed of movement for the entire exercise.) | |
| Long-arm Weighted Swiss-ball Crunch | ||
| | ||
| Lie on your back on a Swiss ball, with your arms extended straight above your head--so they're in line with your ears--holding a medicine ball or dumbbell. | |
| Raise your head, shoulders, and back, and crunch your rib cage toward your pelvis. Pause and slowly return to the starting position. Perform each set in a rhythmic tempo for 40 to 50 seconds continuously. (Don't worry about the number of reps; just try to maintain an even speed of movement for the entire exercise.) | |
