October 2005

Lie on your back with the lower part of your right leg on the ball and your left leg in the air. Lift your hips off the floor so your body forms a straight line. Then pull the ball into your backside with your right foot. Hold for two seconds, then slowly roll the ball back. Do all the reps with one leg and then repeat with the other.
