Functional Fitness Thursdays: Ball

Stability balls are one of the most effective exercise tools a-round (ha ha). We’ll be using them in a number of different ways to challenge our core, cardio, strength, balance and flexibility. Lincoln Middle School gym 522 Stevens ave, Portland. 5:30 - 6:30 pm on Thursdays.

**You’ll need to be able to easily get up and down off the floor to attend this class.

Please bring an inflated exercise ball and a yoga mat, sneakers and water.

When you sit on your ball, ensure that your knees are bent to 90 degrees. If you are sitting too low, pump it up a bit. If you are too high, let some air out. A ball pump will be available at the class. Please come a few minutes early to set up and make sure your ball is at the right pressure.
