This came in my email a few days ago from Spark People. I've done it a few times since and have definitely felt it in my core area in particular.
Wheelbarrow Walk with Ball
Starting Position
Start behind the ball, place your midsection on the ball and roll forward until your hands reach the floor just below your shoulders.
Action
Slowly walk out with your hands until the ball moves towards your toes. Only walk out as far as you are comfortable (either to your hips, knees, or ankles). Once you've reached your point of comfort, slowly walk back to the starting position, breathing steadily throughout.
Special Instructions
Keep your core strong by not dropping your hips. Your body should be as straight as possible.
Muscles Worked: Abs, Shoulders
Time Involved: 2-4 minutes
Body Benefit: This move is a great core stabilizer, building strength and endurance in your abdominals and lower back.
