Worst Exercise Ever?
|
|
The "plank." (ie., holding your body in a fixed horizontal position, just your toes and forearms touching the ground). Stuart McGill, PhD states that a sustained contraction of the long thin muscles of the back can rapidly deplete these muscle cells of oxygen. Depleting cells of their oxygen supply is never a good thing!

| Description:
|
It's a hollow ball with handles that can be filled with water.
|
| How It Works:
|
The ball can be filled with water to produce any weight. But, the real key is the sloshing motion that occurs when you move it...ie., a "destabilized" weight. This recruits additional muscles and nerve pathways to provide an enhanced training effect.
|
| Why It's Cool:
|
It adds a dimension to resistance training and balance training that dumbbells and kettle bells cannot provide.
