The results of the specialized swiss ball fitness program show an increase in physical qualities and anthropometric measurements. The results of our analysis indicate that the research is successful, the fitness program developed is effective and it gives us reason to believe that the inclusion of systemic Swiss ball exercises in the physical education and sport curriculum at the higher school will have a positive effect on physical qualities of the female students.
