This exercise requires the use of a stability ball, and is a great exercise to target the hamstrings, glutes, and core.
To begin, lie flat on your back with your arms stretched down to your sides and your palms up. Place your heels on the ball with your toes pointing up. Tighten your glutes and lift your hips off the ground into a bridge position. Keeping your hips up, draw your heels into your glutes by bending your knees. Return to starting position, keeping your hips up the entire time. Repeat this motion for 3 sets of 10-12.
Remember: Tighten your core and glutes to keep your hips off the ground; do not push your arms into the ground. Your palms should remain towards the ceiling throughout the set.
