Target the lower abdominals with the Abdominal Stability Ball Roll In. You'll also tone and tighten the entire midsection with this stability ball ab exercise!

Listen to podcast episode #201 of "Fit Girl: Your Guide to Getting in Shape" on itunes for details on this exercise and more!

In this video workout sequence of a Stability Ball Combo, you hit legs and abs quickly and effectively!

This is one of my favorite leg shaping sequences from the DVD workout Ball Sculpt 1: Nothing But the Ball (available at Amazon.com).

This 5 minute workout hits your hamstrings and abs using the stability ball. Leg curl works the hamstrings, and most people are weak in the hamstrings, which causes lower back and posture problems. If you workout at home, (and some gyms), you may not have access to a leg curl machine, making it all the more important to use this video!

When doing the leg curl, you may have to do one rep, then stop and slowly build your strength to get consecutive reps. Done properly, it is a very challenging exercise!  The plank position targets the core, ie the abdominals and lower back muscles. You pretty much work everything form the neck down! The leg curl is supersetted with abdominal exercises. You get more done in less time! Efficient, effective workouts get you in shape faster than ever! Add this sequence to your routine 2-3 times a week for tighter legs and abs before summer!

Additional info: This DVD workout Ball Sculpt 1: Nothing But the Ball (available at Amazon.com) is loaded with workout options! It includes "pre-mix" routines that combine the exercises in various combinations for unique workouts. Plus, you get a "Fit in 40" full body workout.  For more preview clips visit the All In One Workout DVD site and click on Stability Ball Exercise.

Lifting straps are helpful when using heavy weight for a large body part.

The weight being used may be too heavy for your smaller, auxiliary muscles and those muscles fail before the large muscle you are working!

For example, you may doing deadlifts for the hamstrings. You can use a heavy weight, but your forearms burn holding it before your hamstrings fatigue. Lifting straps would take the stress off your forearms by holding the weight and enable your hamstrings to finish the set. Another example might be doing dumbbell squats or stationary lunges. Again, you may be able to use heavy dumbbells, or may you just want to go high reps, but after 8 repetitions your forearms burn too much to continue. Lifting straps would allow you to do more reps (or weight) without burning out your arms.

In this video, I'll show you how to put lifting straps on the right way! If you ever need to use them, you'll know how!

Sports specific exercises need to be done on each side of the body! This is especially true in golf! Do this exercise 2-3 times a week, moving slowly through the range of motion and for about 10-15 repetitions per side with a very light weight (or no weight) to improve your golf, baseball, tennis, volleyball or any other sport that requires the body to turn!

Remember, you must do the same amount in each side to gain the best benefits for sports performance and your body shape!
