Stability Ball: Wall Squat With Overhead Press

Video Transcript

"For this clip we are going to do a wall squat with an overhead press. You want to pick a nice stable surface to do your wall squats and you want to make sure that you have enough support in your back. Your feet are further enough away from the wall to where your knees don't go forward of the toes. We are going to pick a lighter weight because we are working our shoulder muscles. As we squat we are going to raise our arms up and strengthen our shoulders. We are going to come down into our squat, push up, then relax. Now you want to make sure when you do choose a stability ball that it is the right size. When you buy most of your stability balls it should tell you your weight and height recommendations so you can pick the correct one. We can extend your arm to make sure you don't lock out your elbows. You should stay in an upright position. You can also alternate your overhead presses so you are going to exhale as your arms come up and go down into your squat and inhale as you release."
