Seated Shoulder Press

Sitting upright on a Stability Ball with feet flat on the floor, hold a Soft Weighted Ball in each hand at shoulder height.  Tighten abdominals as you press the Soft Weighted Balls straight up over your head.  Slowly lower Soft Weighted Balls back to shoulder height.  Repeat.

Side Raises

Standing with feet shoulder-width apart hold a Soft Weighted Ball in each hand down to your side.  Keeping arms straight, raise Soft Weighted Balls out to your sides until your arms are just above parallel to the floor.  Lower Soft Weighted Balls slowly back to your side.  Repeat.

Front Raises

Standing with feet shoulder-width apart, hold a Soft Weighted Ball in each hand down to your sides.  Keeping arms straight, raise Soft Weighted Balls in front of your body until your arms are just above parallel to the floor.  Lower Soft Weighted Balls slowly.  Repeat.
