Strength training

Believe it or not, you work on your balance every time you walk or stand to get out of a chair. However, you might need more practice as you get older.

A few simple exercises you can add to your daily life, like walking sideways or backward, or standing on one leg while talking on the phone.

What kind of exercise

While exercise may not be the fountain of youth, it is the best tool you have for a long, healthy life. 

It lowers the odds of many serious conditions, such as:

  • Heart disease
  • Stroke
  • Cancer
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • High blood pressure
  • Alzheimer’s disease

Balance

To stay flexible takes work. This means you need to stretch. But stretching is not alike.

Active stretching involves moving through the stretch, rather than staying still. A great alternative to tai chi is yoga.

Stretching

Around the age of 30, you begin to lose muscle. Your bone density decreases, increasing your chances of falling and breaking a bone, but the loss of muscle isn’t permanent. 

Stretching is just as effective for preserving muscle and range of motion as weight machines, free weights, such as dumbbells, resistance bands, and body weight exercises.
