Exercise Ball Wall Squat Weighted Tips

  1. Start by placing the exercise ball against a wall and position it at the small of your back. This will provide stability and support throughout the exercise.
  2. Position your feet shoulder-width apart and slightly in front of you. This will help engage your quads and glutes effectively.
  3. Slowly lower your body by bending your knees and hips, as if you were sitting back into a chair. Keep your back straight and avoid leaning forward.
