Lying Ball Extend

Lie on your back with knees bent, holding a weight with both hands. Raise arms overhead until weight rests on the ground. Tighten abs and hold for one count; then on an exhale, bring your chin toward your chest and curl shoulders off the floor, lifting arms several inches whiel keeping your elbows next to your ears. Hold for two counts, then release. Do two sets of 10 reps. -Redbook Magazine
