Ball Squat with Medicine Ball

1. Place an exercise ball behind your lower back and against a sturdy wall for support.
2. Squeeze a medium-weight medicine ball between the knees. If you choose to hold weights, you can keep them at your sides, hold them just over the shoulders or prop them on the upper thighs.
3. Bend the knees and lower into a squat while squeezing the medicine ball to keep it in place.
4. Lower down as far as you can (but no lower than 90 degrees) and push into the heels to go back to starting position.
5. Do 1-3 sets of 10-16 reps.
