Please note: The link to the video in this morning’s post did not work properly. Here it is again with the link to Mark Durinsky’s video of balance exercises.
So with limited access to The Lake House, have you had a chance to work on your balance? This is our third post with videos of Mark Durinsky, one of the personal trainers at The Lake House, showing us several exercises to improve our balance. As we all know, problems with balance can cause falls, broken bones, and even lead to an overall decline in health. We need to make sure we are doing all we can to maintain physical agility as we age so that we can live the lives we want.
If you’re a little shaky on your feet, we hope you have been practicing the balance exercises that Mark Durinsky showed us last week. To change it up a bit, Mark has a few new exercises aimed at improving balance in this short video. While the Lake House is closed and you’re staying at home, take a few minutes each day to run through these exercises and the other exercises that Mark demonstrated in our Balance 1 and Balance 2 posts, and make them part of your ‘new normal’ daily routine.
If you are hesitant to start trying out exercises on your own, please contact Jamie (jmogus@sipoa.org) at The Lake House to help you hire one of the personal trainers for a few sessions until you can do these exercises on your own. The Lake House instructors have also created a series of video exercise programs to help keep us in shape while use of The Lake House is limited. Please contact Jamie (jmogus@sipoa.org) if you’d like the monthly subscription to the videos.
Stay home. Stay safe. Stay healthy.
