Increase stability and strength in your spine and core with moves on the balance/wobble cushion – You will get a total body workout in the process.

Leg extensions p1 – extend then return to starting position

Leg extensions p2 – another great move in this position is scissor kicks – rhythmically raise one leg higher, then switch. Also try crossing your legs over and under

Oblique turns – engage the core then turn from side to side. 1 leg bent on the ground, 1 leg straight – then switch

Lunges – 3 alternatives. 1. lunge onto the cushion 2. keep one foot on the cushion and reverse lunge off 3. place your toe on the cushion and lunge forward

Stacked feet plank and press

Dorsal raises – place cushion just below your belly button and raise up

One leg squats / pistol squats

One leg stands

Plank and press ups

Progression to shoulder taps – hold for a few seconds

Alternative one leg squats

This is one of my favourite pieces of kit – Always slow controlled movements
