How to do the exercise

Sets: 3

Repetitions: 12 per leg

Description: Sit on a SwissBall with feet flat on the ground. Gently roll the ball forward while advancing one leg, then return to the initial position controlling the movement. Repeat with the other leg, ensuring to keep the back straight and the abdominals engaged.

Tips: Maintain a stable posture and avoid arching the lower back. Perform the movement slowly to effectively mobilize the hip.

Progression: Gradually increase the number of repetitions or the duration of hold in the advanced position as the movement becomes easier.
