Impatience And Senior Balance Exercises

Persistence With Senior Balance Exercises

By Suzanne Stoke, Physical Therapist @ Exercise For Balance via www.exerciseforbalance.com

   For older adults, practicing senior balance exercises will help improve stability and reduce the risk of falling and incurring an injury. Please see  http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now As a gentle reminder, however, seeing improvement with overall steadiness takes consistency with exercising and it takes time. Far too frequently, when I ask my patients in the physical therapy clinic if they are performing their balance training home exercise program, they sheepishly mumble that they could be doing more. Ah yes, impatience has snuck in. In regards to a fitness program of any kind (strength training, cardiovascular fitness, weight loss, endurance training, stretching, stability routines)  many people expect changes in a week, but consistency will be key in your goals. Attaining your fitness or balance goals won't happen overnight but it will happen, if you are consistent and work hard giving your brain and body the right amount of time. Depending on how often you train and the intensity of your program it can take between four and eight weeks to see visible results.

Consistent Senior Balance Exercises

   In regards to rehearsing senior balance exercises, there is an additional layer of training that needs to occur between the brain and the body for necessary steadiness. Furthermore, you can see both an immediate improvement in stability as you apply certain balance strategies as well as a long term enhancement in steadiness as your balance reactions get faster and stronger. One important stability strategy that will boost your near term steadiness involves concentrating on the sense of touch between your feet and the floor when you are standing. This sensory feedback connects the balance center in the brain with the sensory input coming from your feet, which enhances your stability. You can learn how to perform this stability technique as well as other senior balance exercise's by following joining in with the routine demonstrated in the Exercise For Balance DVD.
