Balance Beginning around the 4th decade our bodies begin a slow process of balance degeneration. We begin to walk less aggressively on unstable surfaces such as rock, ice and snow. (Some of this is due in part to a lack of muscle tone as we age). This deterioration is correctable, to some extent, with exercise and practice. Here is a quick test to see where you stand or do not stand as the case may be:
Were you as steady or did begin to fall over a tad? Practice these few exercises to help maintain some semblance of balance. All can be done at home just before you begin to lift those weights or ride your bike. Fatigue affects our balance. NOTE: be careful trying these and as always get your doctors blessing before beginning any new exercise regimen. A safe start is in your bare feet so the body gets good proprioceptive advice from the floor to your brain and CNS. Begin by practicing standing with one foot held up for 30-60 seconds Now after you are successful at this one stand near a solid stable surface and hold out your hand in case you begin to fall. Close your eyes and practice holding the above-described position. After you get this down work out on a less stable surface such as a pillow under your feet, or a narrow 1x4, or in a small circle you have placed upon your floor. The closer you place your feet together the more difficult balancing becomes. These exercises do not have to be perfect in their form. They only have to be just close enough to practice your abilities to maintain better balance.
