Exercises to help you keep your balance


If balance is a problem, you can start with calf raises. Hold onto something with your two feet flat on the ground. Rise on the balls of your feet and hold for 10-15 seconds before coming down. Do two sets of 10-12 repetitions. Progress to holding on with one hand, then one finger, and finally, release the support and allow your arms to just hang down while doing the exercise. — 123rf.com
