Video Transcript

" Hi! This is Manny Castro, Exercise Physiologist. On this next exercise, I’ll demonstrate a reverse crunch using the stability ball or the balance ball. Once again, you can use 12-15 repetitions as a beginner and 15-20 or 25 repetitions as an advanced fitness enthusiast. I’ll demonstrate this exercise. What you want to do is use the same position as before, where you were in a push up position and your feet will go on top of the ball. Position one foot and then the other. Do not try to do both at the same time. You want to position the ball at about the height of your shin, and then what you are going to do is roll it up and then right back down. You don’t want to sag your back on this particular exercise or it will be very painful. There you have it."
