Fit Ball Push-up.
I know, another basic exercise, but sometimes its important to remember those we start with. A lot of the exercises we perform as we become more experienced in our training, and the more people we talk to, books we read etc we start getting a huge arsenal of exercises that if you truly break them down are merely variations and adaptations of the basic ones.
We covered Push-ups before, now the difference with the fit ball version is your feet are up on the ball so creating lateral movement which is controlled and stabilized by the core, because your feet are in the air the downward pressure on the upper body and shoulder area in particular is increased thus making it harder to perform.
Another variation of this is to have your feet on the floor with both hands on the ball, this again is much harder than a normal push-up.
