Intermediate
Once you have got the hang of kneeling on the ball with your hands free then you can try this exercise which introduces some movement. It will get you used to the feeling of repositioning your balance in response to the shifting of your weight.
Intermediate
In one of my other videos i explained how to do a kneeling pilates reach whilst on the floor. A great exercise for the core muscles. Here we replicate the movement but do so whilst kneeling on a stability ball! The same principles apply for both exercises.
1) Kneel on all fours on the ball (see my...
Intermediate
The traditional tricep dip can be done almost anywhere and on anything and is great for toning up the back of the arms. However, for a bit of a change why not try doing them on the stability ball? You will find that because the ball is unstable beneath your hands you will really be working...
Advanced
The harder version of the roll out is to perform it whilst standing instead of kneeling. This will increase the work for the core muscles and makes things much harder. Remember, you must be confident and strong at performing the kneeling roll outs before you try these.
1) From a standing position,...
Beginner
Rolling the ball forwards and backwards with your arms when you are in a kneeling position really works your core muscles and targets all sides fo your mid section. It is important to work on these slowly and gently to start with as they do a put a lot of pressure on your lower back if not done...
Intermediate
The second part of balancing on the stability ball is to lift your hands off the ball and kneel up straight. Once you have your hands free and are in control you can then think about performing exercises in this position with weights or medicine balls. Its a great one to practice.
Intermediate
This is the fun bit about using a stability ball! Balancing on it. As well as being fun it really works your core muscles and balance. Plus, once you can perform a kneeling balance on the ball it opens up a whole new world of exercises that can be done on the ball using dumbells and medicine balls.
Intermediate
This is the harder version of the hamstring roll in. Performed on one leg! That is the joy of using the stability ball. You can make most exercises harder by decreasing what you have in contact with the ball or the floor. Take an arm off here or a leg off there and it will get trickier!
Beginner
This exercise really targets the hamstrings and can provide a great workout for them.
1) Lie on your back with your feet on the ball.
2) Lift your hips off the ground, tighten your core muscles and keep this shape throughout.
3) Draw the ball in towards your glutes, bending your knees and using...

An advanced version of the L-Sit that now becomes a dynamic movement rather than a static hold. By drawing the legs back through the hands and leaning forward into a tuck planche you will be working the whole body a great deal and improving your balance and control. You will really feel these in...
Intermediate
L-Sits are a good static hold for developing core strength. You also use your shoulders and arms a great deal too. When you first perform this exercise you will suffer from the horrible cramping of your hip flexor muscles (tops of the thighs) as they work to keep your legs in the air! Take things...
Advanced
The Tuck Planche is the third step on the progression towards a full Planche (see Frog Stand and Straight Arm Frog Stand for steps 1 and 2). It is a fair step up from the straight arm frog stand and so is going to take some practice to achieve. The difference here is that your knees are no longer...
Advanced
I have another webiste to thank for this exercise. GymnasticBodies.com is a great gymnastic website that has a lot of information for those of you looking to train in this manner. This exercise is of course fairly advanced and should only be attempted if you can hold a regular handstand against a...

As with all free weights just keep the weights down until you're very proficient.

If you're new to the back squat start off with weights you can easily handle.
