4 Stability Ball LEG Exercises
Posted by Laurie Stilwell in 4 Stability Ball Leg Exercises, Fitness Tips on April 26, 2011
Summer time is coming and it’s time to start getting out your flip- flops and shorts. Here in Arizona shorts are a must have because our summer temps sore above 100 degrees. Do you have legs that you are ready to show off this summer?
Getting tight, lean legs definitely takes work, but it is so worth the effort. Think of how good it will feel when you put on shorts and feel confident about your legs.
Today I am going to show you 4 more exercises that you can do with a stability ball that will fire up your legs and get them summer ready!
The first exercise is called a BALL WALL SQUAT:
Position A
Position B
This movement will work your quads, hips and glutes. Start in position A with the ball placed between your mid back and the small of your back.
With feet hip width apart and toes faced forward, squat down to 90 a degree angle as seen in position B. Hold the squat for a moment and then push back up through your heels to standing position.
Be sure to keep your toes relaxed the whole time. Also, make sure your knees stay pointed dead ahead. Don’t allow your knees to knock in or bow out. Go for 20 reps. For a challenge, hold the squat longer.
