Heel-to-Toe Walk Balance Exercise for Older Adults

8. Heel-to-toe walk. If you are unsteady on your feet, try doing this exercise near a wall so you can steady yourself if you need to. Now, what I want you to do is you're going to take one foot, place it in front of the other foot, and then do the same with the other. Now, take your arms out. There we go. That's going to help with your balance. Draw your abs in, shoulders back. How does that feel? That feels pretty good. Can I kind of use the wall for some balance? Absolutely. You want to keep it safe, and as you get better, you can always make it a little bit more difficult. And maybe not have the wall there. Very steady. Let's do two, and one more, and there you go. That's good. You can stop right there. All right.
