Walking on snow and ice? Here are your PT-approved tips to stay upright this winter! ❄️⛄️
👉 Take short “penguin steps” to keep your center of gravity low
👉 Keep hands out of pockets—your arms help you balance

👉 Test the ground with each step before committing your weight
👉 Choose fresh snow over shiny, packed ice
👉 Wear footwear with good traction or add ice cleats
