Swiss Ball Exercise For Thighs

Hamstring curl on a ball!
Work this exercise in to your next workout. It involves the core and challenge the targeted muscles.

Start by lying on your back on the floor with the arms at the sides with palms facing up; place the heels on top of the ball with toes pointing up. Squeeze the glutes and draw the tummy in as you bring the hips of the floor. Bend your knees to bring the heels towards the glutes and slowly return to the starting position. Don’t allow your hips to drop and maintain the level of your hips throughout the set. Also keep the toes pointing up when bending the knees.

The more intense the workout the bigger the boost for the metabolism.
