The squat press works as a
warm-up for the entire body.
Stand with your chest high, shoulders
back and feet slightly wider than shoulder width
apart. Keep your heels firmly on the ground.
Hold the ball in front of you at chest level. Slowly
bend your knees and lower yourself pushing your
butt back as if you were about to sit on a chair.
Slowly raise yourself again, pressing the ball
above your head.
While you squat, try to
keep your back as straight as possible. To avoid
straining your knees, don’t let them go past your
toes. Widen your stance if this proves difficult.
The two point perch is a balancing exercise that forces you to stabilize
through your glutes, hips and core.
Climb on top of the ball and try to maintain balance. Brace yourself against a wall until you’re able
to balance on your own.
Keep your eyes focused on an object in front of you to maintain balance. Once
you’ve mastered this, try throwing a ball back and forth with a partner or against a wall.
