Starting Position: Lay on the floor in the supine (face up) position. Place your feet on top of the Swiss ball.
Movement I: Keeping your knees locked in a slightly bent position, raise your hips so that your body is in a straight line, pause and squeeze your butt and slowly return to the start position. Do not allow the butt to touch the floor between reps. Repeat for 10 reps. But wait! No rest for the weary! You have to go right into the next phase...
Movement II: Immediately move into the second phase of the triple threat. For this you will pull the ball slightly towards your body by bending the knees and repeat the same move as in the first phase, raising the hips, pausing and squeezing the butt at the top whilst keeping the knees bent throughout. Do 10 in this position. But wait again! Still no rest for the weary! You have to go right into the last phase...
Movement III: Finally, you will finish with the third phase of the triple threat. To do this you will bring the ball as close to the body as possible. At this point you will raise the hips as high as you can, pause and squeeze at the top and repeat for 10 more.
Tips: Remember to not let the butt touch the floor between reps. Press arms into floor for leverage and balance as shown. You should be able to transition from position to position smoothly, sliding the ball towards you by bringing your feet closer to your butt for each phase.
I told you they weren't for sissies! These may take some practice, but don't give up. They are great for the drop-butt syndrome. Ya gotta love that!
glad you like em!
