30 Seconds SummaryThe Better Balance Feedback Loop
- Improving balance involves training both the glutes and the vestibular system, which controls balance through signals to the brain affecting eye movements.
- Exercises targeting the eyes, such as controlling their movement along vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines, contribute to better balance.
- Using eye fixation techniques during exercises like squats and deadlifts can enhance stability and reduce unnecessary head movement.
- Practical balance training includes closing the eyes and testing directional sway, then using visual focus exercises to correct and stabilize the sway.
- A sample workout focusing on unilateral leg strength features Bulgarian Split Squats, Romanian Deadlifts, and One Legged Box Squats, incorporating eye exercises during rest periods for improved balance.
- Training eye muscles can benefit not only lower body stability but also more complex movements like handstands, emphasizing the importance of form and eye coordination.
