Great Pushup, Crazy Contraption

BOSU BALL

Found an awesome pushup using a contraption that has been around for awhile, but I have always walked by it. I knew it had potential, I just wasn't sure how to give it a chance.
This exercise is performed with the bubble side on the ground. Place your hands on the outer edges of the flat platform, making sure they are directly under your shoulders. Making sure to maintain a flat back, tighten your abdominals throughout the workout.
Descend until your chest is very close to the platform, and then slowly push back up. Perform one set until you cannot go any more, making sure to keep proper form the entire time. Once you complete your first set, rest for one minute, and repeat.
