Working Balance Exercises And Abdominal Exercises At Once

By Suzanne Stoke, Physical Therapist @ Exercise For Balance via www.exerciseforbalance.com/
Balance exercises are easy to combine with Abdominal exercises to get the most out of your workout routine. Please see http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now Practicing stability exercises are important for seniors to stay safe at home, for middle aged adults to stay in on their feet, for weekend warrior activities and for young adults or youths who participate in sports to maximize their performance. Core exercise strengthening is also imperative for individuals across every age group and for all activity levels. Developing good core muscle strength (our core muscles include the Abdominal muscles in our front stomach region and the back muscles along our spine) benefits every athlete to produce more power for their sports activity. Additionally, strong core muscles help folks in their 30's- 80's prevent or diminish the ever so common back pain. As a Physical Therapist, I instruct all my patients on balance exercises, core strengthening exercises and posture. Now, you can multiply the effects of a healthy workout regime by combining stability exercises and Abdominal exercises together.

Increase Your Outcomes With Balance Exercises And Abdominal Exercises

By practicing balance exercises and Abdominal exercises simultaneously, you will be able to maximize your results. The first step is to begin with equilibrium exercises so you develop good balance and are able to add challenges to your routine. As you progress in your balance abilities, add in Abdominal strengthening techniques. As an example, try standing with one foot in front of the other as a stability exercise, but be sure to have your stomach muscles relaxed. Notice how much more unstable you are. Now, stand with the same foot position and recognize how much tightening your core muscles improves your steadiness. BEAUTIFUL! By working your core muscles and equilibrium exercises together, you improve your balance abilities. On the other hand, try another core strengthening exercises where you tie a stretchy band to a stable object and pull back with both hands ( like a rowing motion). You will want to tighten your Abdominal muscles and squeeze your back muscles together to develop core muscle strength. Now, add a balance routine to that exercises. Pull the stretchy band like before but stand one foot in front of the other. You will notice that your core muscles have to work harder when you are in a position that challenges your balance. The take home message is that as Abdominal strengthening and balance exercise routines can be combined to maximize both core strength and balance simultaneously.
