Exercise Ball Workouts?
i just bought an exercise ball a little while ago, and it came with some exercises, but I was wondering those of you who have one, what's your favorite exercises?
I love to just bounce on it! :) I did one that was hard but I liked it. hard to explain....start bouncing and get used to that....then try to do your arms like jumping jacks while bouncing. Its tough. OR lay on your back, put the ball between your feet, up in the air and do sit ups. sit on it while you do weights too. I will think of more.
thanks! i'll try those, after I do this whole "In Shape With Sharon Mann" def. liking this show lol
she is going to kick your butt! I saw her ball workout on Fittv and my kids laughed at me trying to do them!!!!LOLOLOLOL
Let meknow if you fall! For real you can do it! Gotta tell me how it goes!

hahhaha she's doing "pump/stretch" right now.. my legs are killing me already lol... but am I gonna quit? I think not! muahaha lmao
then how are you typing to me! NUT JOB! wait til she does push ups with your feet on the ball!
lol im taking a little breather on the commercials lol, getting a little water, a little wrist/finger workout by typing :P... with your feet on the ball??? that's pyschotic! lol I do them by having my abdomin on the ball and rolling foward so most of your weight is on you while doing pushups... but not my feet!! haha
exactly! she is psycho! have fun!
lol all done... actually that wasn't as bad as I made it out to be :D lol
lmao! i just tried to do a push up with my feet on the ball and almost fall on my face! hahaha that was a riot! lol and before that I bounced on it while doing jumping jack arms and threw in some legs too lol that's fun :D thanks!
oh yeah the kicks and jjs are fun! I just danced with the kids for 20 mins....Im all sweaty now! I let them tell me what moves to do! so dangerous!
lmao!! little kids always come up with the craziest moves! At my high school, once your a sophmore you're elegible to faciliate at the high school's preschool, this is my second year, and the kids are so adorable, but once the music is on they go crazy lol!
oK I like you more and more! Preschoolers are the best! my daughter makes up some crazy stuff! But makes up beautiful songs- not partial as a mom, she can bring tears to your eyes! Talks about kisses from heaven and the heart of a friend. she scares me- when it comes to reincarnation, I believe it with her! She has to be an old soul. I think I hurt my knee dancing though!
Lol yes preschoolers are awesome :D... awe!! she sounds like such an awesome kid :)! well that bites (about your knee) :(
yeah, I think its better this morning. GO TO SCHOOL TODAY! have a good day girl!
That's good, lol school? who goes there?? lol jk, I shall be going... I don't get ready until around 6:30, get up at 4:30/5 to get in some exercise... but can I today?? of course not! my older brother decides to fall asleep in here (the workout/"game" room) so I can't do anything w/out waking him up lol... lol you have a good day today too, glad the knee's better today :D
ok at least you got some exercise in last night! I think Ive hit a plateu, got to work my butt off this morning. been same weight for 5 days now. have a good day!
yep that I did :) 175.4 this morning :D first time I woke up to 175 (my lowest weight throughout the day is after school lol) so quite excited, but I did do some situps and pushups and bounced a little on the ball, but there's only so much you can do without getting bored when you're trying to tiptoe lol... but I'll get on the elliptical or something when I get home :).. hmm well let's step it up! lol I hit a mini-platue right a few days ago, stuck at 177 for a good 6 days lol but then down to 176 now 175 :D
Love the exercise ball, I've even tried sitting on it while at the computer. Fun and challenging but my preschooler (4 year old boy) keeps wanting to play with it! Sharon Mann is awesome, but can't get FitTV anymore (my cable company took it off my line-up, boo hoo). I plan on doing Denise Austin's Fit & Lite in a few minutes, it's a low intensity program but it keeps me moving.
Been on a plateau for weeks, gotta bust through it! Wish me luck.

I have a 4yr old girl and a boy that will be 3 in March. They love the ball too! We have 2, my husband tries to do it sometimes! The first one I bought was too big so he got me another one. Did you know they actually have exercise balls for kids! even for our little preschoolers! not sure if my kids are that stable!
