It will be more difficult to move the raised leg a little. When doing push-ups with legs on the ball and hands on the ball, athletes should first keep the balance of their bodies and prevent the ball from rolling, so they have to rely on the strength of their legs, waist and abdomen to control it, which makes the coordination of their bodies and the ability to control their muscles effectively trained.
