Bridge
To work various core muscles in combination, try a bridge:
- Lie on your back with your legs resting on top of the ball.
- Tighten your abdominal muscles.
- Raise your hips and buttocks off the floor into a bridge (A). Hold for three deep breaths. Besides your core muscles, you'll feel the muscles along your backside — the gluteal muscles and hamstrings — contract to keep you in place.
- Return to the start position and repeat.
- For added challenge, raise your right leg off the ball (B). Repeat with your left leg.
