Hamstring curls using Swiss ball

Lying on back, place feet onto ball and toes pulled back towards you. Place hands out to the side, palms facing down.

Lift hips off floor, activate core and roll the ball slowly in until your knees are above your hips.

Roll back to starting position.

Tip: Keep hips up, position ball under calves – place ball under feet to increase difficulty
