Swiss Ball supine Hip Extension Pre Natal Exercise for Women

http://askthetrainer.com

Supine hip extension on the stability ball is an exercise you can use to work your butt, thighs, hamstrings and core.
Start from a seated position on the stability ball. Walk forward until your upper back and shoulders are resting on the top of the ball.
Your hips should be almost parallel with the floor with your legs in a 90 degree angle. Keep your core tight and lift one foot off of the floor.
Keep your glutes tight as you take a deep breath as you lower your hips downward. As you get more comfortable you can lower your hips further down to the floor.
Exhale and push your ups back upwards until you are in the beginning position.
You can hold a dumbbell or medicine ball for added resistance. This is a great exercise for all women and also those in all 3 trimesters of pregnancy.
Remember that for any exercises to have a toning effect you must have a lean body fat percentage to begin with.
If you are looking to lose fat in your hips and thighs, a balanced, full body resistance and cardio training program along with a low to moderate calorie diet will help you achieve the toning effect by building and/or maintaining your lean body mass and using your body fat for energy.
