Squeeze the ball between your knees. Lie on your back with your arms directly out to your sides. Relax your neck and buttocks. In addition, ensure that your back is flat on the ground with no arch. Place the exercise ball in between your knees. Lift your legs so that your thighs are straight up and down. Your legs should be bent at a 90-degree angle. Squeeze your knees together against the ball for 15 seconds without releasing any tension. Repeat 10 to 15 times with only a few seconds of rest in between.

Extend your legs. Lie on your back with your arms to your side for support. Place the exercise ball between your feet. Press down on your lower back as you lift your legs from a 90-degree angle to straight up toward the sky. Repeat this lifting motion in repetitions of 10 to 30 about 10 times. All the while, make sure you are squeezing the ball with moderate and consistent pressure.

Hold yourself up with your thighs. While sitting down place the ball in between your knees. Roll from the sitting position to your side. Place your hands shoulder length apart onto the ground. Hoist yourself up so that your arms and body are in a push-up position while your legs are bent at a 90 degree angle with the ball in between your knees. Your knees should remain in the same place on the ball as they were when you were sitting down. Keep your arms straight and continue squeezing with your inner thighs to remain hoisted on the ball. Remain in this position for 20 to 60 seconds at a time. Repeat three to five times.
