Our balance is our natural ability to remain steady on our feet without putting too much pressure on our postures or depending upon any external support. Postural strategies or balance exercises involve controlling the movements of your ankles, hips, and knees to counter disruptions in your body\u2019s center of mass.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Importance of balance exercises<\/strong><\/b><\/h2>\n

\"Effective<\/p>\n

Simple balance exercises are typically incorporated to improve overall mobility<\/a><\/strong> and health. They are especially important for older adults as practising them can help prevent sudden falls and accidents. While almost any activity that requires you to keep on your feet and move can help you enhance your mobility, incorporating certain balance exercises like Tai Chi and bicep curls can greatly improve your body\u2019s stability and mobility. Try to perform these exercises at least twice weekly while wearing comfortable clothing and stay hydrated throughout your workout regime.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Types of balance exercises<\/strong><\/b><\/h2>\n

Here are the two main types of balance exercises:<\/span><\/p>\n

Static balance exercises<\/b><\/h3>\n

Static balance exercises involve physical exercises that require you to stay in a single place without moving your feet. These exercises can help you be more stable while performing daily activities like washing dishes, making meals and getting dressed. Variables of static balance exercises include a hard surface to exercise on, with a variation of stances (wide, narrow or split) and motion of your head, arms or neck. You can also change the variables involved to challenge your body balance and improve it continuously.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dynamic balance exercises<\/b><\/h3>\n

Dynamic balance exercises involve any body movement that requires you to stand and move. Some examples of dynamic balance exercises include climbing stairs and stepping over obstacles. Variables for this type of exercise include both hard and soft exercise surfaces with forward, back and side stances with added challenges, including ramps, stairs, and carrying objects. Like static balance exercises, changing the variables can help improve your stability effectively.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
