How to Do the Exercise Ball Pull-In

1. 1Place an exercise ball nearby and lay on the floor in front of it with your hands on the floor shoulder width apart in a push-up position.
2. 2Now place your lower shins on top of an exercise ball. Tip: At this point your legs should be fully extended with the shins on top of the ball and the upper body should be in a push-up type of position being supported by your two extended arms in front of you. This will be your starting position.
3. 3While keeping your back completely straight and the upper body stationary, pull your knees in towards your chest as you exhale, allowing the ball to roll forward under your ankles. Squeeze your abs and hold that position for a second.
4. 4Now slowly straighten your legs, rolling the ball back to the starting position as you inhale.
5. 5Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
