NoLove... I am sorry for hijacking your thread too ...
Like this:
This link:
give some very good reasons why to use one.
As far as stretches & exercises go-- i have fun with mine..
- if you have a filing drawer or cabinet, you lean towards it or just stand up and walk to it (you burn just from standing up).
- bounce on it
- do hip circles
- try to cross your legs and use 1 foot to balance but alternate legs so you work them both
- roll it from side to side (you'll work your obliques)
- keep an extra set of small hand weights (5 or 10lbs) and do bicep/shoulder presses while sitting
Trust me... once you get it... you will find so many more ways of incorporating fitness.
Hope this helps some..

Hello Ladies
NoLove... most excellent to see the routines you're doing. I will admit to jealousy (a lil bit) as I am sooo itching to get back into the full swing of mine again....lol
Just one more week.. one more week.. one more week
lol, I can't tell you how much I understand that! LOL Hang in there woman, it will come!
I was thinking about that too, but wasn't sure if her work would be ok with it. They have them at my kids school. Ever time I go in for a meeting, I'm sitting on one!

I have a few at home
FInding the right size that fits your computer desk is what you need to make sure of. This is the one I use:There are 4 different sizes, so you need to measure for clearance under your desk.

did you order online from that store??
No.
I honestly can't remember who I originally got the ball from. I did pick up my last ones from a Big 5, not sure of the brand. I have ordered from Target before, the GoFit brand. (GoFit also has resistance bands).
We got so many of those balls....lol Think there were like 6 floating around here at one time.....
Time to fix this routine!
Well don't like my routine and sat down today to fix it
This will be my new routine. Mind you I'm not going to be doing all the exercises of each group every time. I will pick a few out.
I'll be doing a 3 day split with 30 min of cardio, and on the 4th day just 1 hour of cardio.
Chest and Triceps
Chest:
Bench press: Incline/ decline bench press
Fly: seated/ decline
Push ups
Triceps:
Kickbacks
Push downs
Dips
Extentions
Reverse pull downs
Rope push downs
30 min cardio*
Back and Biceps
Back:
Rows: bent over/ lying
Pull up / chin ups
Lat: pull downs/ reverse grip
Seated rows / reverse grip
Dead lifts
Reverse flys
Hyper extentions
Biceps:
Hammer curls
Bicep curls
Seated curls
Concentration curls
Cable curls
30 Min cardio*
Shoulder and Legs
Shoulders:
Shrugs front/ side
Lateral raise: front/side
Upright row
Military press
Dumbbell row
Legs:
Squats: split / pile squats/ Bulgarian split squat (bench squat)
Lunges: front/ side/ back
Calf raises
Step ups
Standing kickbacks/ “cat” kickbacks
Leg lifts
30 min cardio *
Right now I can't work abs, so I have left it out completely. I will eventually work that into it and change the split.
* cardio will consist of one of the following:
Running, boxing, sprints, incline, or aerobics
and I will probably throw in some Yoga once in a while
