Getting Fit with the Stability Ball

Welcome to this course, the goal of this course is to use the stability ball to do a combination of exercises at a slow pace, low impact exercises to strengthen our core, leg, ab, chest, arms and calf muscles.

I will be using a stability ball and also a weight such as a mini punching bag, and various resistance bands. The various exercises in the videos include leg raises, passing the ball from in between your legs to your arms, variations of sit-ups, squats, two different types of planks, chest press and rows with resistance bands while sitting on the stability ball.

First, I demonstrate a boat hold using the stability ball and performing the bicycles ab exercise. Second, I will go through the roll out exercise to develop and strengthen our core muscles and calf raises with a weight on our thighs to develop our calf muscles. Third, I demonstrate different exercises to strengthen our back muscles such as the cobra and back extensions and alternating arm and legs while our stomach is on the stability ball. Finally, I end the course by demonstrating various types of push-ups with the stability ball such as incline, decline and raising a leg up at the bottom of each push-up.
