Stability Ball Kneel

How To Perform The Movement

Why This Exercise Is So Effective At Correcting Muscle Imbalances…

Lets say that you find yourself constantly drifting to right side. This is a good indicator that your right hip flexor muscles and your left inner thigh muscles are stronger than the opposing muscles.

What happens is your opposing muscles (the left hip flexor and right inner thigh muscles have to work harder to bring you back to the center point. The more often you are on the ball, the more work those weaker muscles are going to receive and eventually will equal out to the same strength as the stronger muscles.

Now lets say you find yourself drifting more to the front, which is most common. This is a good indicator that your quadriceps are stronger than your hamstrings because they are dominating the movement. Your hamstrings then have to work harder to pull yourself back to the starting point.

Give this exercise a try and report back to us with your experience…

Do you find that you drift to one spot most of the time?

How quickly were you able to improve your balance so you don’t have to hold on?

What’s the longest amount of time that you are able to balance on the ball without falling off or grabbing onto a chair?

Your feedback means a lot to us.

Have a 6 Pack-Abs-solutely amazing day!
