able to roll farther out and hold the position longer.

Extend your arms outward and turn the hands so the palms are facing upwards. Place a dowel rod in you hands
Begin to roll laterally. Throughout the exercise, hold the alignment of you body exactly as it was before moving,
with the exception that you may move you feet in a small shuffle keep them in alignment with the body as you shift laterally.
Go only to the point that you can hold the alignment for the count of "one thousand and One", then return to the opposite
side, repeating the sequence.
The Side Sit requires simultaneous contraction of the internal and external Obliques, as well as the quadratus lumborum. This exercise is used to improve core strength and your back.

Hold your top leg as straight as possible and in line with the torso, shoulders and head, then lie over the ball to stretch the oblique abdominal muscles. Beginners should place their arms at their sides. Progress to placing your arms across your chest as shown, and then to having your fingertips behind you ears.
From the bottom position, initiate the side flexion movement from the trunk.
Side bend the spine one level at a time until the shoulder and head come up.

From a kneeling position, place your forearms on the ball with your palms facing each other.
Place a Dowel rod on your back. The goal is to maintain good spinal alignment as you roll forward. Good spinal alignment is indicated by not exaggerating any of your spinal curves, which often causes the stick to fall
Take a deep breath and draw the navel toward your spine just enough to slim your waistline slightly.
Begin rolling forward, moving from the hip and shoulder joints equally. The movement should terminate at the instant you feel you are going to lose spinal alignment. You will know you are losing spinal alignment if the curves in your spine increase and the stick falls off.
Just stop at the point at which you start to lose your ability to keep good form.
