How to perform Stability Ball Knee Tucks
- Start in a high plank with your hands on the floor beneath the shoulders and your shins or feet supported on the stability ball.
- Keep the elbows straight and press through the hands to support your upper body.
- Bend the knees toward the chest, rolling the ball inward as you lift the hips and curl the pelvis beneath the torso.
- Let the torso angle change as the hips rise rather than trying to freeze the entire spine in the starting position.
- Reverse the motion under control, extending the legs and rolling the ball away.
- Return to the supported plank without letting the lower back sag or dropping onto the shoulders.
