Day 74 – Stability Ball Reverse Plank

Stability Ball Reverse Plank

Stability Ball Reverse Plank

HOW TO…

  1. Sit down on the yoga mat with your legs straight.
  2. Place the stability ball behind your back.
  3. Slowly lean backwards. Roll the stability ball backwards while lifting your hips.
  4. Spread your arms for more control on the ball.
  5. Look upwards, and try to straighten your body as much as possible. From the foot, only your heels should be on the floor.
  6. Slowly roll the ball forward and lower your hips to the floor to complete the exercise.

Note: A softer stability ball will make it easier to do the stability ball reverse plank. The limitation of a softer ball is that you will end up leaning on the ball with a larger part of your upper body, which reduces the effectiveness of the core training.

Goal: Try to lean on the ball with only your upper back. This will require a bit harder stability ball (more inflated). Keep the position for 10 seconds and repeat 10 times.

Variation: If your balance is strong, you can try to keep your arms straitght next to your body.
