To perform the squat stand with the ball between the small of your lower back and a flat wall. Place your feet shoulder width apart slightly forward of the body. Press your back against the ball keeping shoulders back as well. Sit back into the squat bending at the hip and knee. Sit back as if you were sitting in a chair.
