There are many ways to train on the ball.
Weight training. Use the stability ball as your 'weight bench' (supporting function) to add difficulty to the movements and incorporate the muscles of your legs, butt and abs.
Abdominal training. Use the stability ball to perform trunk stability movements (with or without a second ball). Sit on exercise ball, activate the core, lift one leg (keep it at hip level) and hold for 5 seconds. You can then lift the other leg. To progress, add opposite arms (either fully extended or bent as shown below).
