Swiss Ball Horizontal Chop
SWISS BALL HORIZONTAL CHOP
The Swiss ball Horizontal chop is a strengthening exercise for the spinal rotators. Anchor a strength band to a stable object at roughly navel height. Hold a Swiss ball with both arms and use both hands to hold onto the free end of the band. Stand with your feet at shoulder distance apart. Starting with your torso facing the band’s anchor point, rotate your torso in the opposite direction to pull the band. Keep the hips facing forward to isolate the movement to your core muscles.
