Tips for losing weight with exercise balls

　　The first thing is how to choose a fitness ball. Our suggestion is that it is best to go to a professional sporting goods store to buy it. You can try sitting on the ball first. If your knees are almost at a 90-degree angle, then the size of the ball is the most suitable for you.

　　The second is to use a fitness ball exercise time, how long is best. Fitness coaches tell us that it is more appropriate to exercise three times a week, which means that there is one day between each exercise. And each set of movements should be practiced at least three times. For example, if you complete all the abdominal fitness ball exercises we are going to introduce next, it only takes about twenty minutes, but you must insist on practicing so that you can achieve the best results.

　　Finally, a note of caution is that when doing ball exercises, in order to maintain balance, you must concentrate and work hard to control your muscles, so that you can move more muscle fibers, especially those deep and stable abdominal muscles. At the same time, this kind of exercise will also stimulate the muscles of the whole body, make the body shape coordinated and tight, and make your figure slimmer.

　　OK, let’s start introducing this group of slim belly fitness ball exercises.

　　Action 1, bend your knees

　　The first step is to lie face down on the ball with your hands on the ground. Then slowly move forward with both hands, making the ball roll slowly under the body, all the way to the shins. If you are a beginner, just move the ball to the lower part of the thigh. You can take further steps as you become more proficient.

　　Step two, then place your hands shoulder-width apart. Then tighten your abdomen, bend your knees forward, so that your legs and balls are under your hips, and hold for one second.

　　The third step is to finally straighten your legs, fully stretch your body, and then return to the starting position. Repeat this eight to ten times.

　　Action 2, bend the legs

　　The first step is to lie on your back, straighten your legs, then lift your legs and press your heels against the ball.

　　In the second step, press your heels down, contract your buttocks, and lift your buttocks off the ground. At this time, there should be a straight line from your feet to your shoulders.

　　Step 3: Then quickly bend your knees to roll the ball along your hips; then extend your legs and roll the ball back. Finally lower your hips and return to the starting position. If you want to make it more difficult, your hips can stay off the ground during the entire movement. Repeat this movement ten to twelve times.

　　Action 3: Hold the ball with all four limbs

　　The first step is to lie down on your back, straighten your legs, fully extend your arms, and hold the ball with both hands. At the same time, lift your legs and arms so that your head and shoulders are off the ground.

　　In the second step, after touching the ball with both feet and hands at the same time, sandwich the ball between your legs.

　　The third step is to lower your arms and legs and lie flat on the floor. Then repeat the above action. This time, after the limbs reach the highest position, the feet and hands take turns to hold the ball.

　　The fourth step is to finally put down your arms and legs and lie flat on the floor to complete the action. Repeat this movement five to eight times.

　　Action four, push-ups

　　The first step is to lie face down on the ball with your hands on the ground. Slowly move forward with your hands, allowing the ball to slowly roll under your body and up to your shins. If you are a beginner, just move the ball to the lower part of your thigh. You can take further steps as you become more proficient.

　　Step two, then place your hands shoulder-width apart, keeping your body level and your arms perpendicular to the ground.

　　The third step is to slowly open your elbows outward and sink your chest. When your upper arms are parallel to the floor, do not move and maintain this position for a few seconds. If you are just learning, it may be a bit difficult, so bend your elbows, place your forearms on the ground, and then straighten your arms on the ground. Repeat this movement eight to twelve times.
