How
to Improve Balance
and Prevent
Falls
with Balance Exercises
"Five Things You Need to
Know
About
Your Balance"
1. Balance tends to deteriorate with age.
2. Poor balance
increases the likelihood of falling. Each year 1 in 3 people
over the age of 60 experience a fall.
3.
Balance can be improved with the right exercise program.
Everyone
knows you can increase strength, heart health, and bone density with
the right exercises. Balance is no different.
4.
Doing one or two balance exercises you saw in a magazine article or on
the Internet will
not do the job. That would be like doing arms curl and hoping
it would make all your muscles stronger.
5.
To improve balance and prevent falls, you need a structured program
with a variety of safe balancing exercises that can be done several
times
per week.

What are
Balance Exercises?
Most people know about strength training and cardiovascular
training, but balance training exercises are completely different.
The focus of balance training is teaching the brain how to
quickly activate the right muscles at the right time to keep you
upright.
- You don't need to sweat.
Unlike strength and cardiovascular training, balance exercises
primarily train the nervous system. Your heart rate
won't rise, you won't sweat,and you won't get tired.
- You don't need to go to the gym
and pay membership fees. You
can do balancing exercises in your home whenever you
want.
- You don't need to buy any
equipment. If you have a floor to stand on,
you have all the equipment you need.
- You
don't need to devote hours and hours of your time Balance exercises
only take about 10 minutes a day. Can you spare 10
minutes?
Introducing
The Balance Manual
In The
Balance
Manual you
will discover:
- How
balance works, and why your balance may deteriorate as you
age.
- How
to safely do balance
exercises on your own at home with no equipment.
- How
to strengthen
your legs with simple exercises in five
minutes twice a week to help prevent falls.
- How
to reduce your chances

"I
recommend these exercises to all who want to improve their
balance. Simply put, they allow me to do so much more, and I
feel better."
-Joe M., 73 |
Could
You Benefit from Better Balance?
 Improved balance can help you:
- Live
a more active lifestyle doing the things you enjoy.
- Move
confidently with a decreased fear of falling.
- Keep
up
with your friends and family.
That
sounds pretty good, doesn't it? That's
why I want to show you how to train your balance and prevent
falls with balancing exercises.
Meet
Your New Balance Coach
 Hi. My name is Mike Ross. As an exercise
physiologist
at a hospital-based health and fitness center, I've worked with many
seniors by way of
classes, personal training,
lectures, and consultations.
Over
the years, I noticed that while a lot of seniors do cardiovascular
training for their hearts and strength training for their muscles, I never saw anyone doing
exercises to improve balance and prevent falls.
Yet the Center for Disease Control says falling is the most common cause
of injury in people over 60. These falls can
result in visits to the hospital, broken bones, bills, and even a loss
of independence.
I
realized that if you could train your heart and muscles, you should
also be able to train your balance. So I started developing
and
experimenting with different exercises designed to help improve balance
and prevent falls.
I
wanted people to be able
to do the exercises at home without my supervision, so I knew
they had to be simple and safe, and I also didn't want anyone
to
have
to buy any expensive equipment. I kept this all in
mind as
I developed the exercises.
Over the next three years, through
hundreds and hundreds of hands-on training sessions with
seniors, I tweaked each exercise to find the right combination of
safety and effectiveness.
Eventually I organized all the balance training exercises into a
comprehen- sive system. When so many of my
"students" told me the exercises were helpful, cutting-edge, and even
fun, I knew I had to share them with more people.
That's why I developed The Balance
Manual. I
want to show you my system so you can improve your balance, prevent
falls, and enjoy a high quality of life.
 More
About The Balance Manual
- All
the exercises are
explained and accompanied
by pictures so you know you're doing them right.
- You will
learn how to easily customize
each balance exercise for your unique
ability level.
- At
the end of the manual you will find the Balance Workout Sheet with all the exercises on one
page that you can print or copy so you can have it out for quick
reference whenever you do the exercises.
- No
medical jargon!
I realize you aren't studying to become a doctor, so there is no
medical terminology to wade through, just the straight-forward and
helpful information you need to start
training your balance, all written
in large font for easy reading.
"The
manual is both informative and useful in everyday life. It
defines the problem and its causes and offers practical
solutions in a clear, non-technical manner."
-Jeanne O., 74 |
But wait,
there's a whole lot more in The Balance
Manual. In fact, balance exercises are just step one of my three-step plan to
help you prevent falls and maintain independence.
Step 2 -
Stronger Legs
 The
Balance Manual will also show you how to
strengthen your legs to prevent falls in a special chapter...
The
Five Best Exercises for Stronger Legs
Strong leg
muscles are so
important in your daily life.
Whether it's squatting down to pick something up, getting into
your car, going up stairs, getting up out of your recliner, or
just walking around, you need strong legs to help maintain your
balance.
I've hand-picked
the five best exercises for seniors to improve leg strength.
Each exercise is explained and demonstrated with pictures so
you know exactly how to do them.
And just like the balance
exercises, you
can do these exercises in your own home with no equipment. All you need is
5-10 minutes a couple times per week to make an impact on leg strength.

"The
exercises have helped me with both balance and strength. I
use them every week, and afterwards I always feel refreshed
and stronger."
-Thomas R., 76 |
Step 3 -
Reduce Tripping Hazards at Home
Are there
tripping hazards in your house? The sad truth is that most
falls happen in the home. Many of those falls are preventable
if you know what to look for.
The Fall Prevention
Checklist for the Home will guide you through a room-by-room analysis of your
home to
help you eliminate potential fall-causing hazards. There are
over 20 eye-opening tips on the checklist.
Of
course, we hope you never fall, but you should be prepared just in
case. This section will also show you:
- How
to minimize
injury
if you fall.
- What
to do immediately after a fall. Learn how to
assess yourself and your surroundings to prevent further
injury. Having a plan for after a fall can
help reduce your fear of
falling.
- How to get back up after a fall. Sometimes, the
worst part about a fall is the struggle to get back
up. This chapter will show you a step-by-step process to
help you do that.
Your
Complete Fall Prevention Program
The
Balance Manual is a complete system that can help you
prevent falls and maintain a high quality of life.
Step
1. Balance
Exercises
Step 2. Leg
Strengthening
Step
3. Reducing

falls.

"Mike,
thank you for The
Balance Manual. When I finished reading it I was very
surprised to find you did not need to spend a good deal of time
training your balance. Though the exercises look simple, I found them
to be a bit of a challenge at first, but was quite delighted to see an
improvement after practicing. Consistency is very important.
The exercises can be done in a rather short time which allows me to
keep at them. Some of them are fun to do when standing in line at the
check-out counter. It gives me confidence to know I'm secure on my feet
when I'm in a crowded environment
I find the Balance Workout Log to be very helpful. It keeps me working
on different positions and allows for an accurate record of positions
done so I can create new combinations.
The step by step pictures that show how to get up after a fall are a
very helpful visual, and the room-by-room Fall Prevention Checklist for
the Home helps one take stock of one’s living space.
All this information will keep us senior citizens capable of living a
long and active life."
