As we age, muscles may also become less reactive to environmental demands. These changes make falls more likely — and falls at this stage of life can lead to fractures, head injuries, and long setbacks.
Balance training isn't “just” standing on one leg. It’s a full-body stability system involving your foot and ankle stabilizers, hip rotators, core musculature, spine stabilizing muscles, vestibular system, and your reflexive timing and proprioception
As we age, balance naturally declines — not because we’re clumsy. It is a fact that as muscles weaken with age, more sedentary behavior, and repetitive activity that our joint stabilizers weaken and our reaction time slows.
In this video, we will start training for better balance using the 5 Step Isometric Method.
1. Isometrics for the foot, ankle, and hips
2. Static balance positions for foot, ankle, and hip control
3. Bodyweight balance shifts to practice reactiveness
4. Weight training for the lower body using bands and dumbbells
5. All is combined with the stability ball to practice balance training in a controlled environment.
As muscles get stronger and more neurologically connected, balance improves, and your risk of falling decreases.
