Re: September Stability Ball Exercise Challenge

That's weird, either someone deleted my post or I did it when I was intending to edit it?

I had asked it was OK if I got a late start and joined the challenge. I've been doing so much walking/bicycling that I feel like I'm neglecting the rest of my body. I bought a ball yesterday and tried some of the various things included in the booklet. It was surprisingly difficult, I could really feel the muscles burn. I also fell off it once while doing jacknives but I suppose control will come with practice. =)

I'm planning on doing 20 minutes, 3 days a week for 240 minutes total.

8/4
20 minutes
Jackknives
crunches
pushups
