Feeling Wobbly? As you’ve gotten older have you started to feel more wobbly on your feet? Perhaps you're not as steady as you used to be when climbing stairs or walking on uneven surfaces. It's a common experience; and while it may seem like a minor inconvenience, understanding why it happens, and what we can do about it, helps us take proactive steps to improve our balance.
Great tips, nice read, thank you! Balance is the key to everything. I use a Bosu ball to practice balancing on. I try and go for a minute on each leg, sometimes two. It really helps keep things in check. If anything is out of alignment it shows up on the Bosu.
Thanks, Daria! I appreciate the balance exercises! I've been doing PT for a torn meniscus and she had me doing some balance, but these will supplement that nicely. I agree, balance is essential!
Having decent balance has saved me from injury and allows me to feel much more confident hiking on rough terrain. I do these exercises regularly, and they really make a difference.
Yes, balance is critical regardless of age. Having decent balance has made a big difference in my confidence and mobility. I know I would have fallen many times if not for my ability to maintain my balance and catch myself.
