Stability Ball 101

I’m pretty new to a stability ball as well as their exercises. I find the stability ball to actually be a pretty good and fun workout. I mean, you get to roll over, under and around a ball! Who would have thought that you can do so many different exercises. Since I got a new stability ball, which is actually my right size this time - I didn’t know that they had different sizes that are proportionate to your height (oops), I wanted to find some effective exercises to try out.

If you’re under 5′0” - 5′7” you should be using a 55cm stability ball, while a person who is 5′7” and up should be using a 65cm stability ball.

Here is a really good video I found by Exercise TV which teaches some pretty basic exercises on a stability ball.

I tried it out myself, and I must say, I definitely need to work on my balancing!  But it was still fun to do.  I’m definitely on the search for more exercises with this cool tool!
