Living Room Core Training With Ab Ball w/ Scott Kemp

Your core is your stabilizer to all of your body movements. A weak core is like building a house on loose gravel. Your foundation needs to be reinforced and strong. Applying not just to your everyday activity, but especially for paintball. You are constantly engaging your core in movement and stability on the field. Core training is essential to keep everything together and working as one unit.

Here I have designed a living room training program you can do at home, all you need is an ab ball. You can buy one online for no more than $20.
