Hi D! No I have not made an ab ball workout however I know there are quite a few videos available using one. I have never tried any but perhaps someone else can chime in here and offer their suggestions. Nancy C, are you out there ;-)?

RE: Abs Ball video suggestions
Hi, DBonet!
I too am planning on purchasing a stability ball (which is what I HOPE you're talking about!).
There are several videos available through Perform Better (www.performbetter.com); I have the catalog in front of me, and there is a series of videos by Juan Carlos Santana, M.Ed., CSCS that look intriguing. It looks like these are total body training, not just abdominal work, but certainly abs are part of core training.
Also, if you go onto Collage Video's website (www.collagevideo.com), I think you can do a keyword search and come of with some titles; I believe there are several, alt und neu.
If the Abs Ball is different from a stability ball, please disregard this transmission.

I, unfortunately, bought an abs ball too small online (I used a height chart too!)so I can only use it for crunches. But I've been looking for videos for when I get a bigger one.
I have seen that Karen Voight has a new toning video on a ball- I think it's called BLT- check out her website (karenvoight.com). I also think Gin Miller may have one. Check out videofitness.com and collagevideo.com
Good luck

D, if you are looking for a medicine ball workout...I know of two that are quite good...I was actually pinging on Cathe a week or two to make her own version for us;-)but till then..there's Mindy Mylea's Medicine ball workout that is more focused on overall endurance strength and uses the legs heavily. The second is Oof Ball..by Michael (somebody...sorry Michael..short on time). His is a little different in movements to where it focuses on cores strength...still a good over all endurance workout and still uses the legs..but boy, you feel it in the core the next day.
Thanks for remembering Cathe
..and if you have time this next year and have a couple medicine balls hanging around...we'd love to see what you come up with. I think you could do a killer core medicine workout. Now, if I could just get you in front of a camera on a spin bike;-).
