Since you mentioned using your hands in your first comments, I was expecting (and hoping) for suggestions in how to use hands effectively in conjunction with feet /whole body balance.

[@marilyncatt7751]

😅 😅😅

[@khanscombe619]

Awesome. So if coming out of long stay hospital bed will overall core , hips knees ankle play a role? What order should one test for stability ?

[@theactiveadult]

Balance is a big part of overcoming the deconditioning resulted from being bed ridden for a longer period of time. Also, starting to gradually increase your strength by some techniques you can find on some of our other videos would be helpful.

[@yvelineroques1871]

dommage qu'on ne voit pas bien le mouvement des pieds surtout quand on met les sous titres - merci

[@donkent1513]

Where is the closest clinic to Tallahassee Florida to visit for help with leg strength and balance?

[@theactiveadult]

We are located in SWFL, our furthest north clinic is Lakewood Ranch, FL. Maybe one day we will branch up your way!

[@donkent1513]

Can I get the clinics information to call and see if they would be able to help me. I am experiencing rapid decrease in balance and leg strength in the last 2 yrs, 71 yo male, thanks

Too much talk, but I like the exercises

[@maxymaxy4403]

my mother failed at 2nd step , what that mean ? she is 77 years old , recently she fell lot and i don't know what to do ?

[@theactiveadult]

Failing she failed at the second step then just start off with step 1, and incorporate some head turns, possibly even trying with her eyes closed. After doing this for 5 minutes or so every day, she should keep trying step 2, and eventually she will be able to do that. Repeat for step 3, etc.

[@michaelgoldman2869]

I have Parkinson’s’s could these exercises help,my balance? Could I learn to walk with walking sticks? Thanks

[@theactiveadult]

Yes, absolutely these exercises could help you. What if any assistive devices are you currently using to walk?

[@claudiomb8308]

Thank you. I notice that you have shoes on during those exercises. I only tried barefoot and feel very wobbly.

[@theactiveadult]

It is OK to practice either way. I agree, when I don't wear shoes the exercise is a little more difficult. This can be good but if you struggle too much (remember to try and be right on the edge between keeping and losing your balance) then try wearing shoes for now.

[@wrkerry1]

Too much talk

[@theactiveadult]

Thank you! We appreciate your feedback and will certainly take it into consideration for future videos!
