Exercise Ball Vertical Traction

Video coming soon...

The exercise ball vertical traction workout primarily engages the Lats, using the exercise ball as a stabilizer.

The exercise ball provides an unstable surface, challenging core muscles while targeting the Lats.

Place the exercise ball against a wall and stand with your back against the ball.
Position your feet shoulder-width apart and slightly in front of you.
Extend your arms straight out in front of you, parallel to the floor.
Slowly slide your body down the wall, bending your knees and lowering yourself into a squat position.
Pause briefly, then push through your heels to return to the starting position.

Start by sitting on the exercise ball with your feet flat on the floor and your back straight. This will help you maintain balance and stability throughout the exercise.
Hold a dumbbell or a weight plate in both hands and extend your arms straight above your head. This will activate your lats and prepare them for the work ahead.
Slowly lower the weight behind your head while keeping your arms straight. This movement will engage your lats and stretch them effectively.
Make sure to keep your core engaged and your back straight throughout the exercise. This will help you maintain proper form and prevent any strain on your lower back.
As you lower the weight, focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together. This will further engage your lats and enhance the effectiveness of the exercise.
Hold the stretched position for a brief moment, feeling the tension in your lats. Then, slowly raise the weight back up to the starting position.
Repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions, aiming for controlled and smooth movements. Remember to breathe steadily throughout the exercise to maintain proper oxygen flow.
