Exercise balls (Swiss balls, physio balls) add an unstable surface to core, back and lower limb work. They are widely used in low back rehab, pregnancy exercises, post-natal core work and general fitness. The unstable surface recruits stabilizing muscles that are hard to target with equipment on the floor.
Common uses
Core stability, pelvic tilt exercises, wall squats, back extension, pregnancy exercises.
Who may benefit
Core rehab, low back pain, post-natal recovery, general fitness at home.

Frequently asked questions
What size exercise ball should I get?
55 cm if you are under 5'4", 65 cm if you are 5'4" to 5'11", 75 cm if you are taller. When seated, your hips should be at or slightly above your knees.
Can I use an exercise ball during pregnancy?
Yes. Sitting on the ball is often more comfortable than a chair and gentle pelvic exercises on the ball are commonly recommended in pregnancy. Get initial guidance from a physiotherapist.
Will using an exercise ball as a chair fix my posture?
It helps only if used correctly and in short sessions. All-day sitting on the ball can cause fatigue. Alternate between ball and chair through the day.
