Abs Training Exercises – The Fitness Ball

Well-toned, strong, flat, and ripped abs is a fantasy for every man. As much as it is a dream for a lot of men, it has also proven to be something as elusive as a hole in one in golf. Fortunately, the use of a fitness ball in abs training makes this dream more achievable. Below are a few abs exercises with a fitness ball that should help individuals get that six-pack they’ve always wanted.

The Tank Curl

For this particular abs workout, one would need to start off by sitting on the fitness ball. He must then roll the ball using his body until his lower back becomes contoured with the ball. Aside from keeping one’s feet flat on the floor, it must also be ensured that the upper body is higher than the hips. The arms should also be placed across the chest, much like how one would position them for a basic crunch.

Once the starting position is achieved, it’s time to work those abs. The objective here is to use the abs to lift the upper body in such a way that the ribs become directed to the lower body. It’s practically like doing a regular floor crunch, only on an over-sized ball instead of a flat floor surface. It is therefore important to avoid pulling on one’s neck or head to avoid any injuries. This position should be held for around 2 seconds before gently returning to the starting position.

The Hip Extension

This abs training exercise will require the individual to lie on the floor and keep his legs on top of the fitness ball. The heels should make contact with the ball, while the legs are around hip-width apart. Finally, the palm of the hands must be placed flat on the floor.

With the heels firmly in place, one must thrust his hips upward until the body becomes aligned from the shoulders all the way to the feet. The shoulders must be kept on the floor and the hands can be used for support. Again, this should be held for around 3 seconds before returning to the starting position.

The Back Bridge

For this final abs training workout, one should position himself on top of the ball in such a way that the ball is supporting the head, neck, and upper back. The knees should be bent at a ninety-degree angle while the feet are flat on the floor.

The abs must then be used to press the hips towards the ceiling. Once the hips are aligned with the knees and the shoulders, this position should be held for around 2 to 3 seconds.
