This challenging version of the original Pilates exercise One Leg Circle targets the core and increases strength and flexibility of the hamstrings. Be sure to modify your range of motion as necessary to maintain control given the instability the ball adds!

Single Leg Stretch with the Small Ball is a variation of the original Pilates exercise Single Leg Stretch. Adding the small ball under the back allows the spine to extend as well as flex, thus intensifying the abdominal work of the exercise. Also, because the ball adds instability, the core is targeted more! This exercise tones and flattens the abdominal muscles, strengthens the core and increases flexibility of the spine.
