How to Do Prone Exercise Ball Pull in

If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the prone exercise ball pull in.
Beginning
Beginning Exercise Ball Pull in
1. Place an exercise ball nearby and lay on the floor in front of it in a push-up position with your hands shoulder width apart.
2. Now sit on an exercise ball with your lower shins on top. Tip: Your legs should be fully extended with your shins on top of the ball, and your upper body should be in a push-up position with your two extended arms in front of you supporting you. This is where you'll begin your journey.
3. Pull your knees in towards your chest as you exhale, enabling the ball to slide forward beneath your ankles while keeping your back perfectly straight and your upper body immobile. Squeeze your abs for a second and keep that position.
4. As you inhale, slowly straighten your legs and roll the ball back to the beginning position.
5. Rep until you've completed the prescribed number of repetitions.
