Hug A Ball, step 2
2. Lower your hips toward the floor, hug the ball and rest your chest on it, feet flat and knees over ankles. Grip firmly so it cannot roll away and breathe deeply.

How to do it

  1. Seat yourself on the floor.
  2. Straddle an exercise ball between both legs and lower your hips down toward the floor.
  3. Hug your arms around the ball to support your body. Adjust your legs so that your feet are flat on the floor and your knees line up over your ankles. Keep a good grip on the ball so it doesn't roll away from you and send you back onto your buttocks.
