Stability Ball Pilates Core Exercise for Strength and Balance #3369713 (License: Personal Use)

A woman in athletic wear lies supine on a mat, lifting her legs vertically while squeezing a large blue stability ball between her feet; her arms are bent, hands resting near her hips for support. This controlled Pilates variation targets deep abdominal muscles, hip flexors, and pelvic stability, enhancing coordination and proprioception. The posture emphasizes neutral spine alignment and breath control, making it suitable for rehabilitation or strength conditioning.
