Balance Training

The older you are, the more you should work on your balance. The elderly often loose stability, and this result to broken bones and concussions. Balance exercises can be as simple as standing on one leg for some time then switching to the other. You can add one-legged reaches, one-legged bodyweight deadlifts, and standing yoga postures to help with joint stability and balance. Later, try doing abdominal exercises on a Swiss ball or work on standing on a BOSU or balance board.
