Chest Press on Stability Ball Exercise
Description
Chest press is one of the most common exercises to work on the large muscles on glutes and chest muscles. Adding stability ball in the workout is another challenge for the performer. Chest press on stability ball increases your balance, coordination and focus. Stability ball takes your exercise to a more challenging level to strengthen and tone your targeted muscles. The element of instability requires more activation of core abdominal muscles during the workout that increases the strength of multiple related muscles. The increased involvement of core muscles can assist in improving posture, burn body fats and reduce injury risks.
Step 1
Begin seated on the ball with weights in both hands resting on your thighs. Slowly walk yourself out until your neck and shoulders are supported on the ball. Keep your hips up forming a table top. For less stability bring your feet closer together. Raise your arms towards the ceiling above your chest to the starting position, palms facing the wall where your toes are pointed.
Step 2
Slowly bend your elbows to 90 bringing the weights down to chest level. Exhale and press back up towards the ceiling straightening but not locking your elbows
