Wow, you made those look easy! I did most of them! Very good workout indeed! I'll keep practicing and will hopefully get strong enough to do all the exercises! Well done for the push up on the ball, I could barely plank on it! Thanks again, good stuff!
Thanks for this, Ive been needing advice on how to strengthen my core since i had back surgery. The surgeon was too useless to send me to someone to show me what I should be doing. This has made an improvement.
+Shady Lady I had a crush fracture in L2 and this is part of the reason this channel exists. My doctors told me for years to do Pilates and swim to improve my core. Long story short I finally did it and never looked back. Hope you continue to improve good luck.
very good little workout just getting back into it, side abs lift are quite difficult (balancing on the ball) will need to work on that one.... thank you for this short video

I've been a power-lifter most of my life. I figured these Pilates type exercises were just for girls - until I tried them. I never realized how many muscles I WASN'T exercising all this time and how UNBALANCED my muscular development was. Now, I'm concentrating on these "girlie" exercises until I bring them up to par with only occasional power-lifting moves. I like the leg curls on the ball better than leg curls on a machine because using the ball requires a lot more interaction with more muscles.
I tried using my stability ball with the video. I am 5' 4" and have a 65 cm ball. When I sat on the ball, it was too short. The ball seems very small compared to the one used in the video. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Carol Butler Hi Carol, Good question, so good in fact that I put together this blog post on our website to answer your question! If I missed anything let me know here. www.efit30.com.au/how-do-i-choose-the-right-size-fitball/
+Natasha Summers I'm investigating the best guide for developing abs easily and discovered a fantastic website at Toms Magic Shortcut (look it up on google)
Hi. I am loving this workout and want to try it at the gym. I will start with 15 minutes first and was wondering how many reps of each would you suggest doing?
That may help but it the movement is to help your core stability. Make sure your are working on a stable surface. Also some exercise requires you to lift the ball, so you will be lifting the additional sand. My recommendation is no, but it will be personal preference in the end.
Great video, Thank you, it was very informative. I'm going to do this workout 5 days a week for a month. at the end I'll post before and after pics. ... You're very easy to look at by the way.
Great video!! I definitely felt the burn! :) what is the exact size ball that we should be using? also will this workout have any effect on my face, will i get toning there as well if i continue this exercise daily? Thank you!!! :)
There are two ways to determine the correct size fitball™ for you height. By measuring from the tip of the shoulder to the fingertips and use the following size chart. You can also use your standing height and go by the following size chart. Arm length 56-65 cm 55 cm ball Standing Height: Up to 5' 3" (157 cm) Arm length 66-80 cm 65 cm ball Standing Height: 5'4" to 6' (158 cm - 182 cm) Arm length 81-90 cm 75 cm ball Standing Height: Over 6'1" (over 182 cm) If seated on the fitball™, your hips should be slightly higher than knees. When prone over the ball, hands and feet should be able to be placed firmly on the ground.
If you generally lose weight from your body or specifically go into "shred" mode you will have an appreciably thinner face as you lose fat from all over your body.
+Kimo Ibrahim Be careful, you need proper medical advice. I try to exercise 2-3 times a week and vary the types of exercise. Like mixing swimming with Pilates. My back surgeon suggested this as I have a crush fracture in L2
Did you anchor your feet into a wall? This is not easy you may need to give it a few tries before you get it right. Also as you continue your balance and strength will improve. You may be surprised how different it feels in a few days after you have tried again. Sometimes your brain needs a chance to assimilate and learn like learning to ride a bike or roller blade!
so im a guy who almost has abs i have a good percent belly fat and am like super close to getting abs will this help me get abs if i almost have them??
+Marcus Williams if you are that close then it's diet that will get you there quickly. You already have "abs". Reducing body fat will make them visible.
Awesome, I've never actually seen a pig sweat , but nice that you had a great work out. Some of the new routines we have will make you sweat too. Also there is a routine Angela did called Pilates Essentials 3 that is a good core routine which I'm about to remaster because the original was poor quality. Try that one. I did it a couple of days ago feels like someone punched my stomach today. :) enjoy
Lindsay Nakash You will feel the difference after a couple of weeks. Mix it up a bit and do other exercises too. Here is a suggested routine and diet plan etc, it's all free not tricks no sell :) www.efit30.com.au/6-week-boot-camp-train-like-an-olympian-efit30/
That little bouncing routine at the beginning was waaaaay HOT!! Those and her "rotations" have convinced me that I MUST find a way to be "Santa" at her local mall, during the Holidays! Yes, it would be SUCH Joy for this tight-bodied little vixen to take her seat upon Santa's lap, whispering into my ear WHAT she so badly NEEEEEDS for Christmas, while she grinds away with that delicious derriere, as she has so seductively demonstrated!
