  • October Stability Ball Exercise Challenge ~ sign up and reporting thread

    yadda yadda............... y'all know the drill. but just in case you're new to the board or this challenge, read on:

    If you're looking for a challenge that will work on your core and help you with stability and strength, this is for you!!

    Incorporating the stability ball into your usual routine will challenge your body in new ways and break up the monotony of exercises that have gone a bit stale.

    Need some ideas about which exercises to use with a stability ball?

    Yoga on the Ball

    YOUTUBE STABILITY BALL EXERCISES

    YouTube - Stability ball for jiu jitsu

    VIDEO: 20-Minute Resistance Band Workout

    Total Body Resistance Band Workout - Exercises for your body - Exercise

    More SB exercises can be found by clicking on the following, SPARK PEOPLE

    Exercises that count in this challenge include, but are NOT limited to, the following:

    lying hamstring curls
    tricep extensions
    reverse crunches
    lying leg press
    push ups
    jackknife
    stretching
    slow swim
    side plank
    seated leg extension
    bridge ball squats
    rows
    stability ball exercise tapes/DVD's

    Basically, any exercise that you do using your stability ball will count!

    NOTE THE CHANGE IN THE WAY THE TALLY IS DONE!!!!
    YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR MINUTES. I
    WILL NOT BE TRACKING OR ADDING UP ANYBODYS MINUTES BUT MINE. I WILL HOWEVER HAND OUT AWARDS WHEN THE TIME COMES.

    HAVE FUN!, STAY COMMITTED, EARN THE AWARD!!!

          nice to have a new comer! thanks for joining our humble little challenge.

          no need to worry about a copy/paste. you can simply just take care of your own numbers. less work and more time for ball work
