🛑 How's your balance? If you struggle with these 3 simple drills, it's a sign that you should start practicing them regularly!
Good balance is a skill, and just like any skill, you have to practice it to keep it sharp. It's the foundation of feeling confident and stable in everything you do, from walking on uneven ground to simply getting out of a chair.
Start training your balance today with these 3 essential exercises from our trainer, Tia, from Over Fifty Fitness:
1️⃣ Static One-Leg Balance: The starting point for all balance training. Hold onto a chair for support if needed, and build up your time standing on one foot.
2️⃣ One-Leg Chair Squat: This powerhouse move builds single-leg strength and stability. Control the movement as you sit back and stand up using just one leg for support.
3️⃣ Clock Touches: Challenge your stability in all directions! Stand on one leg and use your other foot to gently tap in front of you (12 o'clock), to the side (3 o'clock), and behind you (6 o'clock).
Incorporate these into your routine a few times a week, and you'll notice a huge difference in your stability and confidence.
Don't forget to SAVE this to practice later!
Which one of these is the most challenging for you? 👇
