Bell Raises

Lie on the exercise ball so that your torso is draped over the ball. Slide your hands into the training bells. If you do not have training bells, you can fill an empty water bottle half way with rice. Your palms should be facing down towards the floor. Extend your arms as if you are flying (pretend you are Superman). Raise your arms into the air. Your goal is to get the training bells as high as possible. This is a great time for your friend to help you. Have your friend hold their hands at different heights. Try and hit your friend’s hands. Vary the height you throw your arms each time. Do small quick raises, similar to a pulsing motion. Other times you can have giant raises. Try this pattern: short raise, medium raise, high raise.
