2big - You've just accomplished too much!!!

Jimmie - That sounds like a good plan. I think I'll probably start my goal off lower when I have the ball at my knees too!

Welcome BoxerMom!!! Your arms should be pumped after doing 1000 in a month!

I checked prices at Dicks sporting goods too and it was the same. Seems a bit expensive for a piece of rubber!

I'm looking for the ones pictured by 2big....

Alright, so those are a bit more expensive.

I purchased a inflatable ring (looked like a fat hula hoop) for about 20 dollars. It does help to stabilize the ball but the few times I attempted push ups between my knees and foot, the ball still flew out from underneath me.

Re: June Stability Ball Push Up Challenge - Sign up and Reporting Thread

oh great.... so i can spend upwards to $20 for the ring thing and $25 for the little platform thingy and the ball will still fly out and boink jack in the head.

i think i'll be keeping it at my knees for awhile.
now myjack is a super inventive type of guy and he likes to help me with my exercise efforts. i'll get him on the case and see if he can't "invent" something that will work. i'll keep you posted!

Re: June Stability Ball Push Up Challenge - Sign up and Reporting Thread

Hey Jimmie! If Jack does come up with some new-fangled way to keep the ball from shooting across the room, I'll bet he could make a fortune just selling them to us lot!!
