How to Do

How to Do Single Leg Half Circles on Ball

This exercise may be performed by healthy exercisers with good core stability and who demonstrate great flexibility in the hips.

Be certain to perform this exercise as long as the good form may be maintained throughout.

If any low back pain is experienced, immediately stop the exercise.

The stability ball should not move. There should be no other body movements except by the extended leg and hip.

To make this exercise more challenging, add weights to the extended leg and/or increase the number of repetitions.

Tubing may also be placed around the upper part of both thighs.
