to Improve Balance

Doddie Decided to Take Action and
Train Her Balance with The Balance Manual "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." -Doddie

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.
| "Mike,
I am 86 years old and
have had to give up golf this year because of my physical weakness and
lack of good balance. I really had trouble hitting out of a
sand
trap! I searched the internet in vain until I found an article explaining your Manual, and I decided to look into what you had to offer. I have started reading and using your Balance Manual and it is exactly what I need to help maintain and improve my balance. Your manual is truly a gift to us old geezers who need to keep going." -Ken Elson, Grand Island, Nebraska |

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 balancing 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.
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 Tripping Hazards
These three steps, when used together, give you the best chance of preventing falls.

“My Balance Has Improved Beyond
All My Hopes”
"Dear Mike, I am writing to thank you for the help I have gotten from your balance exercises. I have had such help from them I can hardly believe it. After a long bout of health troubles I lost my balance and the doctors told me I would not recover it. I was devastated and started looking on the computer for any help I could find. It was there that I found your exercises and started them as soon as I could. As you said, they have become a part of my daily life, and I now start the day with them. My balance has improved beyond all my hopes and continues to do so. I can’t thank you enough for your help. Your book is really great. Best wishes," -Margret,
