Exercise Description

Medicine ball rollouts build serious core strength and stability. They force your abs to work overtime while keeping your spine straight.

How To

1. Start in a plank position with hands on top of the medicine ball 2. Keep your core tight and slowly roll the medicine ball forward while maintaining straight arms 3. Roll out as far as you can while keeping your back flat and hips level 4. Pause briefly at the bottom position, then slowly roll the medicine ball back to start 5. Complete medicine ball rollouts with control - never rush the movement

Form Tips

• Keep your core braced throughout the entire medicine ball rollouts movement • Don't let your hips sag or pike up - maintain a straight line from head to heels • Roll slowly and controlled - fast medicine ball rollouts lead to poor form and injury • Stop rolling out when you feel your lower back start to arch

Common Mistakes

• Letting hips drop or arch the back during medicine ball rollouts - this strains your lower back • Rolling out too far too fast - build up your range of motion gradually over time • Forgetting to breathe during medicine ball rollouts - exhale as you roll out, inhale coming back
