Overview

The weighted ball side bend is an exercise targeting the abdominal muscles, specifically the obliques. The ball adds resistance and helps to create a more intense contraction of the obliques. This exercise can be performed with a variety of weights, depending on your fitness level. To perform the weighted ball side bend, start by lying on your side with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. Hold a weighted ball in your hand and extend your arm up towards the ceiling. Keeping your core engaged, slowly lower the ball down towards the floor, then bring it back up to the starting position. Repeat this movement for 10-12 repetitions on each side.
