Swiss Ball Crunches
Muscles Worked
Stomach (upper, lower) or Rectus Abdominis

Position and Movement
Position the ball in an open area away from any objects that may pose a risk for injury. Carefully lay your back on the ball so that you're balanced comfortably. Keep your back and head straight. Place your hands loosely behind your head and proceed to execute a crunch by contracting your abdominal muscles. Be careful not to pull on your head with your hands.

Tip
For stability, position your feet a little wider than shoulder width. Focus on your abs doing all the work.
