Roll out the Swiss ball for this hard "core" workout.

Heavy weights and compound lifts should always be your cornerstones, but that doesn’t mean Swiss balls are just for the ladies in the aerobics studio. These three moves can not only strengthen your core, but liven up your program and help you break through training plateaus.

Push-ups

Prop up your toes on a Swiss ball and place your hands on the floor. Keep your body straight and perform full-range-of-motion push-ups.

Plank

Rest your forearms on a Swiss ball and walk your feet out until your body, from your shoulders to your toes, forms a straight line. Supporting your weight on your elbows and toes, hold for time.

Prone Cobra

Kneel on the floor, resting your hips on a Swiss ball. Extend your arms to make a T with your upper body, and extend your lower back until you’re facing forward. Hold for time or repeat for reps.
