Pretty much. I know what I'm doing wrong, I just have a hard time correcting it. I just got a little advice, to take baby steps, maybe not go up as high, until the abs are doing more and more work each time....that makes sense, i'm just impatient. i really do like those exercise balls. as soon as i can, i'm taking another pilates class, that's been my favorite so far. one of my goals is to improve my posture, and, lengthen my muscles. I don't want bulk at all, i just want to have better balance, posture, etc. And, just a lither (form of lithe, but, would it be "more lithe" instead of lither...hmmmm) shape than what I have now.
