| Prone Ball Walk outs |
|
Action: Shoulder flexion and extension Major muscle groups involved: Shoulder, chest, triceps, trunk Execution: Begin by placing your hips on top of a properly sized stability ball, and your hands on the ground in front of the ball. Take a step forward with one hand, placing your hand in line with your shoulder. The length of each hand step should be about the length of your hand with your fingers extended. Continue walking forward on your hands, pulling your abs in tight until your are as far forward as your core can handle. For beginners this may be until the mid thigh is on top of the ball. Advanced exercises can walk all the way out until their tiptoes are on top of the ball. Keep your torso straight and parallel with the ground as you walk out and return. You can walk all the way back until your toes touch the ground or until your knees reach the ground.
