Helps With
A challenging lower body exercise that helps build leg strength, balance and stability — best practised earlier in pregnancy while balance is still steady.
Instructions
-
1
Set Up
Rest your right foot on top of the ball with your left knee soft and hands on your hips.
-
2
Roll Into Lunge
Slowly roll the ball backwards as you bend your left knee into a lunge.
-
3
Align Knee & Toe
Make sure your front knee stays in line with your toes throughout.
-
4
Engage & Hold
Engage your core and glutes, holding the lunge for 5 seconds.
-
5
Return & Switch
Slowly return to standing and repeat on the opposite side within your comfort.
Tip
Skip this one in the third trimester — a shifted centre of gravity makes single-leg ball balance riskier than the reward is worth.
