As part of 'April Falls' we have been trying to promote safe ways to improve balance by adding more exercises into our group classes 🏋️‍♀️💪

Practicing your balance shouldn't be limited to the Comet gym space though. You can work on your balance at home when you find free time and will notice improvements fast ⚖️💨

You can change your feet positions to any of the listed ones below:
⭐️ Feet Together
⭐️ Tandem (heel to toe)
⭐️ Single Leg

To make the exercises more difficult, you can add one of these variations:
➕ Head Turns
➕ Shoulder Taps
➕ Eyes Closed

⚠️ Golden Rule: Make sure something stable is nearby for you to hold onto - just in case ‼️

If you are wanting more specific exercises tailored to your needs, contact us at Comet Healthcare and book in for your next appointment today 📆
