Whole Body Vibration And Senior Balance Exercises

Senior Balance Exercises For Whole Body Vibration

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

  To maximize physical fitness, older adults have turned to whole body vibration training in combination with senior balance exercises to enhance muscle strength bone density and stability. Please see    http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now Aging individuals as well as athletes have found that performing certain exercise routines on a vibration platform can have many exceptional benefits. As an example, medical researchers have shown that  whole-body vibration training may improve neuromuscular function, leg power, falls risk, bone formation and bone density. In regards to senior citizens, a substantial proportion of older people sustain falls, which in combination with low bone strength contribute to fractures and associated morbidity, reduced quality of life and increased mortality. Previous fallers are more likely to fall again, so improving fall risk in previous fallers is particularly important.  Medical professionals understand, however, that many of the people who are at the highest risk of falls and fractures may be unwilling or unable to exercise due to weakness, frailty or poor balance. Externally applied loading as in whole-body vibration is a potential alternative. Research has shown that regular training by standing or exercising on a plate that vibrates at high frequency improved muscle function and bone strength. Whole body vibration workouts in combination with performing senior balance exercises is an optimal way for elderly folks to build better leg and bone strength and to improve overall steadiness.

Senior Balance Exercises For Enhanced Steadiness

    To increase stability during functional activities, medical professionals recommend participating in a program of senior balance exercises in combination with vibration platform training. The synergistic effect of vibration training and performing equilibrium routines can build appropriate leg strength, bone density and balance abilities.
