swiss ball + obliques...

Rudely butting in

A killer one for the obliques that I do on the ball is -- (now lets see if I can explain this well enough...) lie on the ball on your side with your feet on the floor, so you're kind of standing on the sides of your feet and your body is about at a 45 degree angle with your hip resting on the ball. Then you do crunches to the side - so you 'crunch' movement is like tilting to the side, targeting the obliques.

Oh I'm doing a horrible job of painting a picture here... so here's one I found on the web: http://www.netfit.co.uk/assets/abs_small_ok/121.jpg

I also do this at the gym on the hyperextension bench, usually with a weight or plate in my hand. Really feel that one in the obliques the next morning!

HTH!
