What is the Plank in push-up position with hands on an exercise ball?

The plank in push-up position with hands on an exercise ball is an advanced core exercise that intensely engages the abdominal muscles and upper body. Using an exercise ball adds an element of instability, thereby increasing intensity and muscle engagement. It is an excellent variation for those looking to improve their strength and stability.

How to properly perform the Plank in push-up position with hands on an exercise ball

  1. Assume a push-up position with your hands on an exercise ball, wrists directly under your shoulders.
  2. Engage your core and glutes to maintain a straight line from your head to your heels.
  3. Hold this position for the desired amount of time, keeping your abs tight and breathing steadily.
  4. To increase the challenge, you can perform small movements with the exercise ball, rolling it slightly in different directions while maintaining a stable plank position.
