This Pilates-based exercise will help strengthen your core and train your balance and coordination.

Starting Position

Lie on the floor on your back. Hold a stability ball between your feet with your legs extended out along the floor and place both arms over your head.

Exercise

1. From the starting position, raise your legs up over your body as you raise your arms to meet your feet.

2. At the top of your motion, where your hands meet your feet, transfer the ball to your hands.

3. With the ball now in your hands, lower your legs as you lower your arms back to the floor behind your head.

4. Continue to transfer the ball between hands and feet for 20 repetitions (totaling 10 with the feet and 10 with the hands). Breathe regularly throughout the movement; exhale as your legs and arms rise, inhale as you lower them. Your lower back should remain against the mat throughout the exercise.
