So many activities, not to mention simply staying on our feet, require good balance. Balance training is important to everyone (not just the elderly who are more prone to falls and the serious complications that can arise). I wondered if there are things that I can do to not only maintain but to improve my balance.
It shouldn't come as a surprise to learn that a strong core is essential to good balance. Can't get away from those core-strengthening exercises!
Fitness instructor, Nicole Nichols, has some simple but effective balance exercises that don't require any equipment.
Other good online information can be found in a article from the Montreal Gazette and U.S. News.
