Bravo Dr Jo ! I followed along step by step here at home and was amazed at how challenging those very simple appearing moves were. Your instruction was right on target and very much appreciated.

[@AskDoctorJo]

Thanks, and you're welcome!

[@nannakristjan6452]

Same experience for me. They look so simple but my core muscles and stability are adequately engaged

[@StudetteStudette]

Thank You Dr. Jo, I have bad knees and until I found your video I was thinking noone would have a video for people who couldn't get down on the floor or lay over the ball. These are simple exercises but for me they are great as I am unable to get up if I get down on the floor. I did subscribe and will watch more of your videos once I have done these exercises conquered.

[@AskDoctorJo]

You're welcome.

[@saayleepatankar4969]

Thanks for this vdo...presently suffering from cervical spine issues and vertigo....I've been going for physiotherapy sessions where they are teaching me stability with using this Swiss-ball....what measurement Swiss-ball are you using in this vdo?

[@49-ASpecialKindaBird]

This is a good start for me w/ the Yoga Ball. Would you recommend stretching before or after?

[@AskDoctorJo]

Stretching before helps lengthen the muscles to strengthen in a lengthened position.

[@sunilparolia]

Hi Dr Jo. Just came across your video and love the info you gave on this video. Do have one question for you about using stability ball for rebounding exercises. Wanted to see your thoughts on this and any exercises you would recommend for the rebounding effect that are safe. I heard using the ball can be a great alternative to mini trampoline. Hope I make sense and love the fur babies 🐾🐕‍🦺❤️. Have a great day/night to you. Jessica

[@AskDoctorJo]

Thanks! The fur babies say, woof (hi). Do you mean to increase circulation in your body?

[@jessicagalvin363]

@@AskDoctorJo Yes that would be correct. My husband is recovering from chemotherapy treatment for his testicluar cancer and heard rebounding was a good exercise to help him. We heard about seated rebounding and wondering if that really would help. Just curious what your thoughts and suggestions on this. We have two cats ( aka the boys as my husband would say..lol). Thank you for your time and information. ❤️🐾🐕‍🦺❤️🐾🐈

[@AskDoctorJo]

LOL! They are definitely family :-) In theory, it does seem like it would increase circulation and help the lymphatic system, but I don't really know if it will help. I haven't used that kind of technique with patients (it's been a long time since I have worked with patients who go through chemotherapy). I think it's probably worth trying as long as it's cleared by his doctor.

[@jessicagalvin363]

@@AskDoctorJo Yes family all the way. The really cool part of our fur babies is there real brothers. Sometimes brotherly love is tested at times but they wouldn't know what to do without each other.. Lol. Thank you again for the information and will definitely clear it with his doctor. Have a great night!

[@AskDoctorJo]

You're welcome! Good luck!

[@97yawnac]

My apologies if you have covered it before, but is there a buying /sizing guide for those balls? I have used them before at aerobics and we changed up the balls all the time--some were more bouncy, some were stiff. I want whats right for this level of exercise. Thanks. Bet your hounds have a blast with that ball!!

[@AskDoctorJo]

LOL! They don’t know what to do with such a big ball :-) Usually each brand has a chart based on your height. You can also fill them more or less with air to get it just right. Good luck!

[@rodrigoalmanza66]

Which size ball are you using?

[@urbanoramos5229]

Dr Jo I'm 1,73 cm and have a 65 inches diameter balance ball,would you say that's the right size for me,thanks

[@AskDoctorJo]

Yes, that should be fine.

[@urbanoramos5229]

AskDoctorJo thank you for taking some time in your life to reply to my questions two times already,lots of KZbin channels ask to comment,ask questions and then most of times don't even reply,so from a Portuguese in the UK 🇬🇧 thank you for your videos

[@AskDoctorJo]

You're welcome! Good luck.

[@monishareddy1]

What muscles do the side to side and front to back on ball work?

[@ellatoler9706]

This is a great basic workout. Thanks.

[@AskDoctorJo]

Thanks, and you're welcome.

[@kelliprodzinski3342]

I’m just beginning these exercises. But I’m noticing my thighs are tightening and aching while I am doing the pelvic tilts and circles. Am I doing it incorrectly?

[@daveross5314]

Yay the fur babies!!!! What's the brindle ones name doc ?

[@AskDoctorJo]

:-) That's Kali (short for Khaleesi).
