Balanced Betty - Ball Squats

Balanced Betty - Ball Squats
This exercise works the thigh muscles (quads) and is perfect those who find regular squats too difficult to do. After a couple of weeks of doing these, you might have built up enough strength to be able to do regular squats.

Ball Squats
Start Position:
Position the ball on a wall. Stand with the arch of your back against the ball, leaning back, feet slightly forward.

Exercise:
Bend your knees, allowing your back to roll down the ball. Stop when your thighs are parallel to the ground. The knees should not go over the feet. If they do, step a little more forward. Return to Start. Repeat. Aim to do 15 to 20 repetitions.
