Try this one out at home before bringing in a ball to your workplace and end up breaking something or even worse, someone. Make sure you have enough space to maneuver when you try it out, so that you're not knocking into walls or people ; ) Remember, when you get your legs up on the ball, knees should not touch ball. When you hold your plank, clench the glutes tight and tuck your tail bone inward towards the front of your body. Keep your hips elevated instead of bowed (No 'U'-shaped pushups). Swing the elbows close to the body as you descend into the down position. Try EXHALING into the descent. Big push on your ascent, INHALING to where your elbows are locked out straight at the top of the motion. If it is too challenging to keep your elbows close to torso on the descent, then allow your elbows to bend outwardly, away from the head. Keep your whole body engaged throughout the entire motion and get ridiculously fired up in no time. Repeat for 4-6 sets to really work the chest, shoulders, triceps, forearms and wrists. Repeat with knee tucks integrated with the pushups and watch your core strength skyrocket. Be mindful: though this exercise can be performed by just about anyone, I recommend light stretching before any physical exercise and/or consulting your doctor before attempting any physical fitness activity.
Train your whole being, not just your muscles.
