Balance Ball Crunches

Fitness trainer and owner of TRyM Fitness, Tim McComsey, demonstrates an exercise that's sure to get your abs burning. All you need for this is a balance ball and the desire to get a flat stomach. The larger the ball, the harder this exercise will be. Start on your back with your feet on the ball, shoulders on the mat, arms extended toward your toes.

The whole point of this exercise is to stabilize the ball, using no momentum, so your abs do all the work. Exhaling, perform a crunch, trying to touch your toes. Inhale on the way back down. Continue performing crunches in a slow, controlled movement. With summer quickly approaching, this is the perfect exercise to get your midsection looking the way you want.
