How to Get Started with Stability Ball Workouts?

Before starting, ensure your stability ball is properly inflated to match your height. The DVD includes tips on choosing the right ball size. Begin with the warm-up to prepare your muscles, then follow the main workout. Each exercise is demonstrated with both standard and modified versions, so you can adjust the intensity. As you build confidence, increase repetitions or try advanced variations. The workout is structured to be done in sequence, but you can replay specific sections. Consistency is key: aim for two to three sessions per week to see improvements in strength and balance.
