Basic Exercise Ball Workout

The exercise ball exercises in this basic exercise ball workout demand that you maintain a neutral spinal position throughout the entire exercise. You should be able to find your neutral position now in lying, sitting, standing and when on all fours. If you feel your back sagging, arching, or your pelvis tilting, you have reached technical failure and should stop and rest.

Now that you've mastered the basics of lumbar stabilization in a neutral position on a stable surface we can now introduce the unstable surface.
