How To Perform The Important Balance Exercises For Seniors

How to perform balance exercises for seniors - get great balance

Today I show you how to do five important balance exercises which progress in difficulty.

I know everyone who sees this video will have different capabilities, so to accommodate for this, if they are too easy, I show ways to make these exercises more challenging.

On the other hand, some of the exercises may be too challenging... You may look at them and think, "There is no way I can do that. It's too hard!".

But..... You can do it, and if you can't..... just not yet!

It is possible, and the way to get there is to break down the exercises for YOUR capabilities. No one else's... Yours! And start from there.

The next step is to stay consistent with the balance practice and continually challenge yourself by progressing the exercise.

If you can't do one of the exercises as shown, I also show how you can make the exercises easier at the end of the video.

When you can make the exercises easier, you can start practising the exercises for the level you are at and then progress from there.

Here is a diagram of how to progress your balance.

Eventually, more challenging exercises will be easy, and you'll see significant improvements in how you move and feel daily.

Having good balance can ensure you are moving well and can help prevent falls... So let's start practising it now.

START BALANCING THE BEST YOU CAN!

Learn these exercises and start practising them each week. Over time, progress the exercises using what I describe in the video and watch how good your balance gets.

This is the best thing you can do to ensure that you move well and prevent falls from happening to you.

Enjoy the video. Enjoy your day, and keep moving!
