I have done this move before. It freaks me out a little because I am always worried that my ball will pop out from under me and I will drop the weights on my head! It is a great move!

I know what you mean!! The good thing is that you don’t have to do it exclusively on the ball 🙂
You bet I’ve done this one!! Tonight is actually my last power sculpt class until the Fall. I can’t believe it!!! Next Wed I’ll be on a plane to Spain – cray cray!!!

I am so geeked for you!! You have NO idea!!
Totally felt the burn just looking at this one and looks like a great workout move for the upper body. Thanks for sharing and have a great Wednesday now 🙂

Ha, yes there is definitely burn involved 🙂 Hope you are having a great weekend!
I can’t wait to try that move on the ball – I think it will be perfect for this week!!!
Thanks!!

yes!! I love when you do these moves!! 🙂
I have never done this! Scarlet was riding a bike with a stability ball on her lap this morning. I thought that was something!
And it was cool that they have stability balls at school!

That IS something!! I think stability balls are pretty much everywhere 🙂
Love this one! Such a great combo move, especially with the stability ball added in. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Hanna for stopping by!!
Ooohhh…I definitely need to try this. I love using the exercise ball in place of a bench for exercises. It’s a great way to get a little extra out of your workout – especially if you’re cramped for time!

Exactly, I love a move that works multiple body parts!
Haven’t tried at all. But it’s great that working out doesn’t always have to be in the gym. My workmates always ask me to go to the gym with them but I just can’t have the luxury of time. Most of the time I go home right away when I get off from work 🙂

You are welcome!! So fun!
I’ve never done these on my stability ball. I usually do them on my bench with my easy curl bar. I do think they work really well but not my favorite. I think having someone there to help the first couple of times is a good idea. It’s easy to go to far and pull a muscle.

definitely–if you have never done these before, you should have some sort of support!
