How to perform Stability Ball Leg Curl
- Lie on your back with both lower legs and heels supported on the stability ball and your arms on the floor.
- Lift the hips so the trunk and thighs are aligned, keeping your weight through the upper back and the ball.
- Maintain hip extension while bending both knees to roll the ball toward you.
- Keep the hips lifted as the knees curl, rather than dropping and bridging again on every repetition.
- Extend the knees under control to roll the ball away without losing the lifted hip position.
- Repeat the curl and return, then lower the hips when the set ends.
