Concerned about using a Fitball? Read on:

These can be scary at first. I had a client came to me a few weeks ago, terrified of a fitball.

I just got her to sit on it  have a wall in front just to get used to it and play around with it and know that this is going to become a good friend. She had a wall in front and she just put her feet out till she got to the wall, had a bit of a lean back and push herself back.

A that's all she did at first and she got really quite secure with being on that ball and now she can lie on the ball and do all sorts of things. Still a bit scared, but she's getting better and better and her body has improved no end because of it. This works all your stabilisers.

This works your muscles so hard when you're on it. Today we're doing a basic workout with no equipment at all but the ball and it can be modified as you go through. So just pay attention to the modifications.
