This is a very basic exercise that if done on a regular basis will improve core strength. During paddling, core strength is essental, it can be done with the Swiss ball or without. By raising one leg, holding and pausing for 5 to 10 seconds, and then repeating with the other leg, you can advance the exercise.

For example, as your strength improves, repeat 5 times, holding for 30 seconds. Then add 5 to 10 seconds per set.

Every 4 weeks, record your fitness by holding for as long as possible and timing.

For maximum benefits, this exercise should be included in a balanced fitness program, and repeated three or four times per week.
