Here is part 6 of my stability ball workout. If you missed the other parts of this exercise routine then you can find them here. This exercise adds a new level of challenge to the traditional leg raise by activating your core as you lean over the ball. I found that moving your leg from the back to middle and front really creates a nice burn in your thighs. This is a great exercise for shaping the muscles at the sides of your body. I didn’t count reps for this one – just keep going until you hit failure. There is a variation of this exercise at the end of the episode if you need at extra challenge.
Remember that you can substitute a heavy book or a bottle of water for the medicine ball – if you don’t want to use a weight then you can grab a basketball or do the exercise without anything in your hands. The movement by itself can be effective.
If you have any questions you can reach me in the forum.
Best,
