Squats are more effective when you’re holding a stability ball because it increases resistance while strengthening your arms.
To maintain proper squatting form you should lower your butt as if you’re going to sit on a chair. And keep your back straight.

Swill ball rollouts activate your abs and improve core stability. Avoid arching your back as you do the rollouts – keep your back slightly curved throughout.

The plank is more rewarding on a stability ball because you have to engage the core to keep your body stable.
