Description

Lie over a Swiss ball in the position shown below.

Keeping your hips high, bring one vertebrae at a time off the ball curling your lower ribs into your hips before returning to the start position.

Keep you tongue pressed to the roof of your mouth to engage the correct neck stabilisers: DO NOT hold the head in your hands as this can create an imbalance within your flexor chain.

Draw your belly button in toward the spine during the movement to engage the internal abdominals (transverse abdominus).
