1. Lay back on a stability ball so that it rests on your shoulders and neck.

2. Engage your abs to help keep your body straight. Bend at the knees with both of your legs so that the soles of your feet rest flat on the ground. Your legs and feet should be about a foot apart from each other.

3. You will be performing a dumbbell press and rotation with one of your arms.

4. Start holding the dumbbell straight up in front of you so that your knuckles face the ceiling and your palms face away.

5. Slowly bring the dumbbell down and bend at the elbow so that it makes a 90 degree angle.

6. At the bottom of the press, the back of the arms should be in a straight line, parallel to the ground, with your palms both still facing away.

7. Press back up from this position while simultaneously reaching your arm to the opposing side of your body, dumbbell in hand.

8. Reach back to where your arm was and come down from the press.

9. Repeat for repetitions and then change arms with the dumbbells.

Benefits
