Trying to boost core strength from home? Then it might be time to add some of the best chi ball workouts to your ab exercise roster. Scroll for just a moment on your social media feed and you're bound to see Pilates instructors and coaches using chi balls to tone and strengthen their bodies. One thing's for sure: the small, squishy balls are an excellent tool for building full-body strength.
But the simple, affordable tool really comes into its own when you start thinking about core strength. Anything that challenges stability will force you to engage those all-important deep abdominal muscles, as personal trainer and sports therapist Jade Imani explains. "Chi balls have gained popularity because they add an extra layer of challenge to traditional core exercises," she tells MC UK. "Their instability recruits smaller stabiliser muscles, which are often neglected, leading to a stronger, more functional core."
