Effective Balance Exercises to Improve Walking Stability

Feeling unsteady when walking?

Adding movement to balance exercises is KEY! 🔑

Simply practicing standing on one foot isn’t enough to help train balance when walking. When you’re walking, you are moving. So when you are training balance, you need to be moving too! ✅

Here are some examples of how to do that:

👏🏼 add arm swings

👏🏼 add diagonal reaches (no twisting)

👏🏼 add head movements

These are just a few to get started with ☝🏽

Set a timer for up to 60 seconds each side depending on how difficult they feel 🙌🏼
