Our Top 8 Stability Ball Exercises

Squat with a Ball

Yes, this is an awesome thigh and butt toner. And indeed, I nearly knocked the TV off the wall in attempting this. (Find a larger wall space than you think you'll need before hiking up the ball to the wall.)

Do it:

Place an exercise ball between the wall and the curve of your lower back.
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Bend your knees and lower 5 to 10 inches, keeping your shoulders level and your hips square. Hold this position for 3 seconds and then stand back up.
Start with 5 reps and work up to 12. Rest for 30 seconds and do another set.
