Having trouble keeping your balance?

Stretching, biking ,walking,and some weights as well as a time at Physicisl therapy ( helped me balance myself after not dealing with my injuries correctly ) really made me soar more than I ever thought possible. I was so scared and I am so much better than expected. Simple little stretching/ movements is making a big difference. I am going to be 65 this year and in some ways I am better than my younger years. Also wearing the right shoes makes a difference. Being hearing impaired, older , leftie, curly haired - independent thinker makes falls more likely ( first two is real causes)

Great and important post! I’m 78 and also think I am in better shape than when I was younger...lucky to have no pain...and also hard of hearing (which is why I am crazy about balance exercises ). I’ve been attending exercise classes for nearly 6 years and incorporate many of the stretching, strength and cardio into my daily routine...throughout the day. What a difference in quality of life.
