- Begin this exercise in the push-up position, with both hands supported on top of the stability ball.
- From the described position, lower and raise your chest to and from the ball by bending and extending the elbows.
- While performing this exercise maintain a straight line alignment from the ankles, knees, hips and shoulders.
- Perform both the upward and downward movements in a controlled fashion.
- Repeat as appropriate for your ability.
