Abs-olutely Fabulous: Ab-Toning Stability Ball Workout

Roll and Reach

Targets: Abs, obliques, and hips

Lie facedown with legs together and arms extended over head, palms flat. Lift right leg off floor and roll over to the left.

Once you are faceup, immediately lift upper and lower body off floor into a V-sit position (torso lifted 45 degrees, legs together and extended diagonally toward ceiling, arms reaching for toes). Hold for two seconds. Lower body to floor, then roll over to start.
Repeat, this time lifting left leg and rolling to the right to complete one rep. Do 5 reps.
