Stability Ball Exercises with Weights Manuel
The Stability Ball Exercises with Weights Manuel will gaive you a better understanding of the numerous benefits of stability ball and free weight training. In a typical strength training program with free weights, there are 3 different roles that muscles play when your body performs a specific action. Because a stability ball is used as base of support, a fourth role (balance stabilizers) is added and held by the lower back muscles, abdominal muscles and thigh muscles. These muscles work together to keep the body stable on the ball. The Stability Ball Exercises with Weights Manuel will show you how to properly use weights to inhance your exercise program and tone your body. Written by Doris St-Arnaud The Stability Ball Exercises with Weights Manuel includes over 40 basic ball exercises performed with hand weights full color photos with easy to read, easy to understand instructions. It is a 30 page paperback.
The Stability Ball Exercises with Weights Manuel includes a safely designed program that provide the following benefits:
Increased bone density, muscle, tendon, and ligament strength, thus decreasing risk of injury.
