Recently we worked on core and balance.
Think you have good balance and core?
Try this...
Feet together, Fold your arms, Bend one leg up
You are supposed to be able to do this for a min of 20 secs. Without wobbling too much
Easy?
Try this....
Same thing, now close your eyes and do it. Still easy?
Now try this...
Same thing. Feet together, Folded arms, Lift one leg, Eyes shut, Now, turn your head left and right real slow
Did you wobble?? Try lifting each leg and see which one is best.
Got balance and core strength?
There is a reason I posted this.
I mentioned to her that I will be in the mtns hunting elk for most of Sept so she showed me this stuff.
As we hike in uneven terrain, the chances of injury go up if our bodies arent used to sudden changes in steps or balances.
Like stepping off a curb. Our body knows its 8in because we have done it time after time. But if there a dip or slip, its your body's ability to balance that recovers you without injury
It is true - at 20, this was a snap. At 50, it is work.
