Stability Training for the Unbalanced

[Matt Phillips]

Who in their right mind would tell a person to back-squat on a stability ball? The dude's stabilizing muscles aren't going to engage when he starts to lose his balance, they're going to crash to the ground with the rest of him as he sends that loaded bar flying in one random direction or another. Insanity.



LOL at that dude who thinks he's spotting that lift.

Yeah, I've seen the skinny yoga chicks at the gym balance on these things, but not with weights. This here is really stupid ****.

That's INSANE! And possibly one of the few things I will never try. Not because I don't think I\d be able to do it, but because I cannot be bothered trying for long enough to master that.

I feel like I'm looking at a paused video right before something horrible happens.

And its one thing to put yourself in this much danger while squatting. But if you are gonna attempt something this stupid at least have the courtesy to use a squat tower so that you only kill yourself not other innocent members of the gym

Thanks a lot Matt, now I'm descending into Lovecraftian madness.

This was a joke, I believe, done to make fun of the stupid. But, since we're talking about crazy balance:



Action starts at :58.
