Here is an exercise that can be done on a balance board.  To begin, hold a kettle bell with your right hand.  Squeeze your abs and slowly step up onto the balance board, placing your feet shoulders width apart.  Keep the weight close to your body as you lift it up to your chest.  Your right elbow should extend to the side when lifting the weight.  Lower the weight again and repeat the entire motion for 2 sets of 12 repetitions (on each arm).

Try this type of leg lift to strengthen your abdomen.  Start by lying on your back on the floor.  Place an 8” inflatable ball under your glutes.  Keep your legs straight and together, as if they were glued.  Make sure your abs are clenched as you lift both legs until they are perpendicular to the floor.  Now spread your legs a few feet apart, bring them back together and then lower them again until they almost touch the ground.  Repeat this movement for 2 sets of 12 repetitions.

Try a simultaneous leg kick, in and out.  Begin by lying on your back, on the floor with a soft 8” inflatable ball between your legs.  Your entire body should be flat on the floor.  Clench your abs and bring your knees up until your shins are parallel to the ground, holding the ball between your knees.  Now extend your legs until your knees are slightly bent.  Hold for a second and then lower your legs to the original position.  Repeat this movement for 2 sets of 12 repetitions to start.
