    The Exercise Ball Push Up involves placing your feet or knees on a stability ball while doing push-ups. This challenges your balance and engages your chest, triceps, and core muscles more than standard push-ups.

    How to do it

    1. Place your hands on the outer edge of an exercise ball with fingers facing out.
    2. Lift your knees to form a straight line from your heels to your shoulders.
    3. Bend your elbows to lower your chest towards the ball, keeping elbows at a 45-degree angle from your body.
    4. When your chest touches the ball, push up to return to the starting position and roll the ball to your left hand.
