• Swiss balls are found in different sizes, so opt for a ball that is appropriate for your height. The ball should allow you to sit tall with your lower and upper legs at a ninety-degree angle and feet shoulder-width apart for stability.
• If needed, place the ball against a wall for support while performing exercises. Also, position mats on each side of the ball to keep it steady.
