"Our next clip is going to be a stability ball chest press. You want to pick some weights that you are comfortable with lifting because this is going to be a challenging exercise both balance-wise and for your chest and pectoral muscles. Once you have set on your stability ball you are going to roll forward and now you want to make sure that your neck and shoulders feel support so you are stabilizing from your core in your back and once you feel comfortable, you feel like your neck and shoulders are supported you want to have your arms at a 90 degree angles, extend up, and squeeze. Bring those shoulders together to help challenge those pectoral muscles, back to 90, exhale, bring your weights together and then relax on your breath. Now try your best not to arch and as always when you are balancing on the stability ball you can use the wall for additional support, bracing your knees and your toes against the wall to help give you some additional balance. If that is not quite challenging enough you can always change the angle to a fly. You will have the palms facing each other and squeeze the pectoral muscles together, exhale on the way up and inhale on the release. You can also alternate and go back to your basic chest press with the palms facing forward, squeeze those weights together, touch them slightly and then bring them back down to 90 degrees."
