Single Leg Floor Touch
Single Leg Stance is a simple yet effective exercise to improve balance, strengthen stabilizing muscles, and enhance overall coordination. Using a chair provides added support for safety and stability.

Step 1: (Optional) Stand behind a sturdy chair, placing your hands lightly on the backrest for balance. Position your feet hip-width apart and stand tall with your shoulders relaxed.

Step 2: Shift your weight onto your left leg while keeping it straight but not locked.

Step 3: Slowly lift your right foot off the ground, bending your knee slightly. Hold this position for 10–30 seconds, or as long as you can maintain good form.

Step 4: Lower your right foot back to the ground and repeat the movement on the left side.

Step 5: Perform 2–3 sets of 10 repetitions per side, gradually increasing the duration as your balance improves.

For an extra challenge, try removing one hand from the chair or closing your eyes—but only when you're confident in your balance and safety.

Tips for Success for Older Adults
° Keep your movements slow and controlled to avoid losing balance.
° Focus on engaging your core and keeping your standing knee slightly bent.
° If needed, use a chair or wall nearby for added stability until you’re confident in the movement.
