Why Strength and Balance
‘Stay Stronger for Longer’ highlights how strength and balance exercises help lots of people to keep doing the things they enjoy – for longer.
There are several ways you can improve your strength and balance whilst staying at home:
- Join in a live daily strength and balance class online with ‘Keep Active with Oaks’ every weekday.
- Watch the videos and / or download and read the Strength and Balance Home Exercise programme booklet to complete the exercise programme in the comfort of your own home. Please read our safety checks prior to proceeding with the home based programme.
- Download the ‘Super Six’ exercise leaflet and try and do the simple six exercises as often as you can.
- Visit Living Sport to access a range of other activities to keep you moving at home’
You can do a combination of any of these at least twice a week, the more the better.
