Declined Pushups on a Stability ball

We love doing inclined chest presses but to add variety to your chest exercises, why not try the declined pushups.

How to do it:

Place hands on floor (wider than shoulders) and prop feet on a step, platform or (if you're advanced) an exercise ball. Slowly bend arms and lower body until elbows are at 90 degree angles. Straighten arms and push up without locking elbows. Keep abs tight throughout the movement! Repeat for 1 to 3 sets of 12-16 repetitions, with a 20-30 second rest between sets.

This exercise works the chest, arms, abs, back and shoulders.
