Stability / Swiss / Exercise Ball Reverse Crunches
How to Do Stability / Swiss / Exercise Ball Reverse Crunches
- Lay on a mat with your arms flat by your sides and your glutes, hamstrings, and calves all resting on a Swiss ball.
- Pull your heels into the Swiss ball allowing you to ‘grip’ the ball between your heels and glutes.
- Putting pressure on your arms, roll your lower body back so that your glutes and lower back leave the ground with the Swiss ball held tightly.
- Lower your back and glutes slowly back to the ground to complete one rep.
Note – Take care not to lower yourself too quickly, this may cause the Swiss ball (with you attached) to bounce in a strange manner.
