Fitball for your Home Training

Fitball training has become increasingly popular due to its effectiveness and versatility. This tool can be used to improve strength, balance, flexibility, and coordination. Here are five strengths of fitball training with some exercises you can try at home.

 

 

1. Improved Stability and Core Strength.
   The unstable surface of the fitball forces the core muscles to work harder to maintain balance. This strengthens the abs, lower back, and oblique muscles.

 

2. Exercise Variability
   The fitball can be used for a wide range of exercises, from push-ups to abdominal crunches to stretching exercises. This makes it suitable for any workout program.

 

3. Increased Muscle Strength.
   Using the fitball allows engaging multiple muscle groups simultaneously, improving overall body strength.

 

4. Enhanced Posture
   Training with the fitball is particularly beneficial for those who spend many hours sitting. In fact it helps improve posture by correcting muscle imbalances and increasing body awareness.

 

5. Reduce Risk of Injury
   The fitball is ideal for performing low-impact exercises, reducing the risk of injuries thanks to its capabilities of improving postures and strengthening core muscle 

 

A brief list of exercises you can do at home with a fitball

 

1. Abdominal Crunches
      Lie on the fitball with your back well-supported and your feet on the ground. Perform a crunch by lifting your shoulders toward your pelvis.

 

2. Push-ups
  Hands on the fitball and feet on the ground. Perform a push-up while keeping your body straight.

 

 

3. Fitball Squats
   Fitball between your back and a wall. Slide down into a squat position while keeping the ball steady.

 

 

4. Bridge
   Lie on the ground with your feet on the fitball. Lift your hips to form a straight line from shoulders to knees. Hold the position.

 

 

5. Plank on Fitball
   Forearms on the fitball and maintain a plank position, engaging your core to keep balance.

 

 

6. Leg Curl
   Lie on the ground with your feet on the fitball. Lift your hips and bend your knees, pulling the fitball toward you.

 

 

7. Russian Twist
   Sit on the fitball and walk forward until your shoulders are on the ball and your body is in a straight line. Rotate your torso from side to side while keeping your hips steady.

 

 

You can use all these exercises in a circuit, so you can train your entire body. Incorporating the fitball into your training can lead to significant improvements in strength, stability, and flexibility, making it an essential tool for those who want to work out at home.
