Your core muscles are some of the most important muscles in your body. A strong core helps prevent injuries, improves balance, stability and posture, eliminates back pain, boosts physical performance, and more!⁠
⁠
Most people focus on strengthening their abdominal muscles to improve core strength, but the low back muscles are just as important! If you have a stability ball, the low back extension on ball is a great exercise to strengthen those low back muscles.⁠
⁠
First make sure the ball is properly inflated. Then lie belly-side down on the ball, keeping your feet shoulder distance apart on the floor behind you. Place your arms either beside you, crossed on your chest, elbows bent while hands touching the side of your head, or arms straight ahead of you. Now, lift your upper body by engaging your low back and abdominal muscles. Slowly lower down to the starting position and repeat.
