Straight Leg Bridge

The Straight Leg Bridge exercise with the Swiss Ball targets the deep core muscles, hamstrings, gluteals and back.

Start lying on your back with the heels on top of the ball. Lift the hips until there is a straight line from the heels to upper back. The aim of the exercise is to maintain a perfectly straight hip and back alignment.

• About the Swiss Ball

  After suffering a back injury, I was recommended the Swiss ball to assist with rehabilitation. For my reference (and yours), this site lists exercises using the Swiss ball.
