I am speechless! I have not mastered the regular stability ball pikes yet!

WOW!!! That is all that I can say onthat one! When I saw the heading on this post I said "What?" I can do a two legged ball pike very well. I got to the point with PUB abs that I could do about 50 of them with good form. I don't think that I can do one-legged ones though. I will have to try that tomorrow morning when I work out.

Thanks for posting the wonderful picture from the blog!

I did like the fact that I noticed someone in the background not doing the one leg exactly like Cathe - so some modifications were shown...

How scary is that at first glance... hehe... I am SO excited for these new workouts - but so scared at the same time.... hehe...

Wow is all I can say too, I don't think that I will be doing those any time soon.

Cathe Is So Graceful!!!!

Pilates-inspired abs promises to be a personal favorite. Cathe looks so graceful in this Mermaid picture:

I am still in awe of the one-legged pikes!

I was looking at that pic and thinking it would be lovely to see Cathe doing yoga inversions and balance poses. Her alignment is absolutely perfect and she looks rock steady.

The one legged extensions on the ball looked pretty tough too!

Chocolate IS the answer, regardless of the question.

Yeah, my eyes popped out of my head on that one. lol

Oh Boy!! These look scary.

I can do regular pikes but these blow me away. Try doing a regular pike then lift one leg in the air. The balance challenge is huge. Might need some extra padding around when trying these}(

not in my life-time! yikes

 

[goldenrun358]

I can't even do regular pikes! One legged? Yikes! I am beyond impressed with Cathe's strength.

 

[banslug]

OMG! Am I sick because I want to go try one RIGHT NOW???? LOL! I've got core/abs tomorrow, maybe I'll venture onto the ball with one leg! lol

What's NEXT? Ball pikes while standing on our HEADS?

And, with the looks of the partner exercise....maybe I need to order a CATHE PARTNER from her online store? Think she'd patent one for us?

I don't know if I even dare look! LOL!

 

[trunyon]

HA! Gayle - I was thinking the same thing - I was wondering if she may come up with some type of manaquin or automatic machine that would be my partner and catch the ball when I throw it then throw it back to me!

Gayle and Tina.......if Stuart is in the on-line store I have DIBS!! :7 ;-) Oh my, what a workout that would be! *lol*
