My first time using the ball the other day i did 4 sets of 20 and damn i feel it

[hurly75]

i didnt think you where meant to put your hands behind your head to like pull you up cause it can hurt your neck cant it

i already have a slim body and such. But I've been doing these for the past two days and I'm already feeling the results. How long does it take to actually get a 6 pack?
