START: Lie face down on a stability ball and position your hips and ribcage on top of the ball. Open your legs into a wide straddle and tuck your toes into the floor for support. Place your hands on the floor in front of your shoulders, and hold a light weight in your right hand, palm facing in. Straighten your back by lifting your ribs slightly.
 
Technique Tip: Look down, not forward, to prevent your neck from arching.
