How to Do Push Up Fly on Stability Ball and Bench
The push up flies on the stability ball and bench should begin with a good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the push up fly on the stability ball and bench.

3. Lower your body to the ground slowly until you feel a stretch in your tricep muscles, then hold for a count.

Movement
Push Up Movement
1. Begin by coming into a pushup position with your feet and arms all on different objects.
2. Your right arm will be straight on top of a stacked bench so that your hand is flat on it. Your left arm will be straight on a stability ball so your palm is also flat in the middle of it. Lastly, your legs will be straight behind you on a chair so that your toes are on it.
3. Make sure all three objects are the same height off of the ground.
4. Perform a pushup with your right arm by bending at the elbow so that it forms a 90 degree angle.
5. Simultaneously, roll the stability ball out to your left so that your forearm rests flat on it.
6. Roll the ball back to where it was towards you while pressing back up with your right arm to the starting position.
7. Repeat for repetitions.
