Exercise Ball Rotation Crunch (alternating)

Video coming soon...

The exercise ball rotation crunch is a core workout that primarily engages the Obliques.

The exercise ball adds instability, increasing the challenge for the core muscles.

Place an exercise ball on the floor and lie down on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the ground.
Extend your arms straight up towards the ceiling, keeping your hands shoulder-width apart.
Engage your core muscles and slowly lift your head, neck, and shoulders off the ground, while simultaneously reaching your right hand towards your left knee.
Return to the starting position and repeat the movement, this time reaching your left hand towards your right knee.
Continue alternating sides, lifting and reaching with your opposite hand towards the opposite knee, while maintaining control and stability on the exercise ball.

Start by sitting on the exercise ball with your feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart.
Hold a dumbbell or medicine ball in front of your chest to add resistance.
Engage your core and slowly lean back, keeping your back straight and your abs tight.
As you lean back, lift your right foot off the floor and extend your leg straight out.
Simultaneously, twist your torso to the left, bringing the dumbbell or medicine ball towards your left hip.
Return to the starting position and repeat the movement on the opposite side, extending your left leg and twisting to the right.
Remember to breathe throughout the exercise, exhaling as you twist and inhaling as you return to the starting position.
