balance training
Equilibrium-building workouts
Balance training is exercise designed to improve stability and coordination, typically involving activities that challenge the body's ability to maintain equilibrium.
Common methods include standing on one leg, using wobble boards, or performing movements on unstable surfaces.
Physical therapists often prescribe balance training for older adults to reduce fall risk.
