    kneeling
    crouching
    standing
    squatting
    jumping

    There's not much technique behind it. Just practice and progressively make it harder.

    It takes practice, dude. You can't just learn the magic trick and suddenly jump squat all over the place.

    you have to start somewhere! Work on just kneeling, hold on if you have to and then when you feel comfortable move on.


    I just think it gets dangerous.

    Standing on it isn't hard actually, you just have to work up to it. I can squat on it, shoulder press on it, do whatever once I get settled. I've even done twisting cable pulls on it standing. Start with kneeling with support, then kneeling with movement and then progress to standing - always with something to hang on to (I do it in front of a Smith machine).

    What do I use it for? CNS stimulation, sometimes for swimming movements to train my core with that movement, ankle and knee and pelvic stabilizers.
    Today I can do what others will not so that tomorrow I will do what others cannot.

    The difference between winners and losers is that winners do things that losers don't want to do.
