Monday Minute: The Palloff Press

Unlike normal situps and pushups, this non-traditional core training exercise teaches your body to be in better balance and triggers the most important core stabilizer muscles. It will help you get stronger at your center of gravity, which in turn lessens the likelihood of injury.
