Move With Confidence: 60 Seconds to Test the Balance Your Body Really Needs

When the weather is beautiful, a perfect day to take a casual hike or chase the grandkids around at the playground, but you refrain because you lack confidence in your ability to keep up while successfully navigating the uneven terrains.

It’s frustrating when we come to the realization that fear is preventing us from living the active life we love. But after an injury or a close call, fear avoidance often becomes the biggest limiter of our activity level.

At Performance Therapy Fitness, we know that to move confidently, your body needs to practice dynamic balance—the kind you use when active—not just standing still.

This is why top physical therapists use specialized, evidence-based tests to assess your anticipatory control (how your body prepares for movement).

Try the Confidence Check: Heel-to-Toe Stance
This simple 60-second test is often used by experts to measure the stability needed for confident movement:

Stand beside a sturdy kitchen counter or chair so you can touch it with one finger for support if needed.

Place one foot directly in front of the other, so the heel of your front foot touches the toes of your back foot (known as the Tandem Stance).

Hold this position for up to 30 seconds on each side. Did 30 seconds feel easy? Did you feel a strong wobble or need the counter? Either way your results give you the practical knowledge to build a plan.

This test is one small piece of a comprehensive evaluation, the Mini BESTest, that rehab professionals use to understand balance scientifically.

Confidence starts with an honest assessment, not guesswork. Our fitness programming integrates the essential elements of balance training that will help ensure you can move with confidence and start engaging in the activities you enjoy.

Do you know a friend who is modifying their daily activities due to balance concerns? Share this simple test with them! Knowledge is the first step to confident movement.

Beyond Mobility: Why Your Foam Roller Matters More Than You Think

Foam rolling isn’t just for loosening tight quads or opening your upper back. Yes, it boosts flexibility and range of motion before a workout—but the real hidden benefit is what it makes you practice every time you use it:

Getting down to the floor… and getting back up.

For active adults, this simple ability is a major predictor of long-term independence. Foam rolling naturally trains it by giving you:

1️⃣ Lowering practice — controlled movement from standing to the floor

2️⃣ Push-up practice — using your arms, legs, and core to return to standing (or using a chair as needed)

At PTF, we love foam rolling because it improves mobility and builds the strength and confidence needed for daily life. We teach you how to do it safely and effectively so you can move better to live better.

Know someone who owns a foam roller but never uses it? Share this with them—they might just find their new favorite habit. 💪

Client Spotlight: Andrea Calloway

“The best investment I could have ever made.”

When Andrea joined Performance Therapy Fitness, she felt something she hadn’t in years—hope. She came in with knee issues, low strength, and concerns about bone density. Today? She’s stronger, more confident, and feeling better than ever.

Andrea’s bone density increased by ten points, her energy and focus are up, and she no longer needs a knee brace.

What she loves most:
“They genuinely care. They listen. Everything is personalized.”

We’re proud of you, Andrea. Your hard work is paying off, and your journey inspires everyone here at Performance Therapy Fitness.

Client Spotlight: Jeff 🏆

At 65 years old, Jeff took on the Rule The Roost 12-hour relay in Chillicothe, Ohio — and crushed it, covering 20 miles in a single day!

What makes this even more incredible is that not long ago, Jeff was dealing with chronic back pain that was limiting his ability to train and do the things he loved.

Through his dedication and the individualized program we built together at Performance Therapy Fitness, Jeff not only got out of pain — he got stronger, fitter, and more confident in what his body can do.

Now he’s living proof that it’s never too late to move better, feel better, and achieve big goals. 💪

Way to go, Jeff — you’ve truly earned your miles!

Every few weeks, we take our clients through a full Movement Health Testing session. This is a key part of how we track progress and ensure we’re moving each person in the right direction.

What is movement health? It’s exactly what it sounds like! It’s an assessment of how well your body moves. When you visit your doctor, they likely won’t ask you to perform a squat, a push-up, or hold a plank. But these movements tell us far more about your physical function and long-term health.

That’s why movement health is the foundation of our program. We assess and track the fundamental movement patterns every adult needs to stay active, pain-free, and strong for life. Over 90% of our clients report a noticeable difference in how they move and feel within just the first few months of training with us.

Curious how your movement stacks up? Come in for a free consultation and movement screen. We’ll show you exactly where you’re starting and how we can help you move, feel, and live better.
