Stability Ball Exercises for Seniors & Beginners // Fun Workout with Dumbbells

Fun 20 minute workout using a balance / stability ball!
We will work our entire body in a seated position. There will be NO rolling back or any floor work! If you do not have a big ball you can do most of the exercises in a seated position in a chair. Light hand weights can also be used for the arm strength section of the workout.
This workout is fun and easy to follow at your own pace. It includes exercises that are wonderful for the hips and lower back.
The wider to step your legs out, the more stable or better balance you will have. If your legs are set more narrow it will be more of a challenge. Make the workout your own!
Let me know what you liked in the comments!
Thanks for working out with me!

Oh my gosh I loved this so much. I’m almost 66 and a couple of these exercises took me back to my childhood!!! Remember hoppity-hops? Lol. And the inner thigh squeezes….yep, same muscles when posting on a horse! Thanks Lauren. We need to tap into our hidden child from time to time! ❤

good workout however I would caution about the OUCH. If your body says ouch, don't do it! I hurt myself in yoga with Jane Fonda, many years ago, "feel the burn" (which Jane says she now regrets!) and suffered chronic pain for 20 years, with many other consequences. Please caution people about taking it easy.

@SeniorShapeFitness 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the feedback. I feel that it's fairly obvious that I'm not in pain or promoting viewers to be in pain. In most of my videos I'm constantly saying: "start slow, you do you, and that exercises should never be painful". I apologize if this "ouch" came off in the wrong way. I'm simply sympathizing with my viewers in a way that's saying "hey, I feel this too".
