Exercise Description

The exercise ball leg tuck builds strong abs and hip flexors while improving balance. It's a dynamic core move that hits your midsection harder than basic crunches.

How To

1. Start in plank position with your shins resting on the exercise ball, hands flat on the floor 2. Keep your core tight and pull your knees toward your chest, rolling the ball forward 3. Pause when your knees reach your chest, feeling the squeeze in your abs 4. Slowly extend your legs back to starting position, controlling the exercise ball 5. Repeat for desired reps, keeping your upper body stable throughout the exercise ball leg tuck

Form Tips

• Keep your shoulders directly over your wrists throughout the exercise ball leg tuck movement • Pull your belly button toward your spine to engage your deep core muscles • Move slowly and controlled - don't let momentum take over the movement • Keep your head in neutral position, looking down at the floor

Common Mistakes

• Letting your hips sag or pike too high during the exercise ball leg tuck • Moving too fast and losing control of the ball, which reduces muscle activation • Placing hands too wide or narrow, which makes the exercise ball leg tuck unstable
