Description

The ball helps with support in this exercise. Place the ball between the wall and your lower back. Step forwards about a foot length and lean gently back into the ball. Make sure most of your support comes from your legs. Slowly lower your body down by bending at your knees and allowing the ball to travel up your back. Only go as far as 90 degrees at the knee as any further could put too much pressure on your knee joints. Once you are in the seated position push yourself back up allowing the ball to travel back down to the base of your spine. Keep your chest out and head high at all times through this exercise as it will help to keep your back straight (neutral). Exercise description by Hugo Saner.
