EYES CLOSED
Eyes closed is the most
dificult way to use a Balance
Board. All exercises can be
performed with eyes closed
if the user has developed
appropriate stability, balance
and reaction time. Always
start the exercise with eyes
open. When both you and
your spotter are ready, close
your eyes, only until you feel
off balance or out of control.
WARNING: FALLS SHOULD
BE EXPECTED. ONLY
PERFORM THIS ACTIVITY
WITH A SPOTTER.
SINGLE LEG
All of the Beginner exercises
can be performed while
balancing on one leg.
Establish where your center
point is by positioning your
foot so that you can
comfortably move the
board in any direction.
Single leg exercises require
more strength and stability,
and you may find that one
leg is much stronger than
the other. Keep practicing
and focus on areas where
you feel you have the least
control.
SIDE PLANK
For core strength and
endurance training, use the
board for everyday exercises
such as planks. To increase
the difficulty, try a side plank
by balancing on your
forearm or hand and holding
for 30 seconds. Repeat 3
times per side. Ensure to
keep your back and neck
straight and hips sqaured.
Incorporate the Board into
almost any regular exercise -
the possibilities are endless,
so please learn at your own
pace and use caution.
GREAT FOR ALL AGES
