Balance Board

A balance board is a device used to improve balance and strengthen core muscles. It consists of a flat, hard surface on top of a cylindrical or semi-spherical base that provides instability.

Key Points

• Ensure the board is on a flat surface
• Start with a wide stance for better balance
• Focus on engaging your core muscles
• Keep your knees slightly bent
• Look straight ahead to maintain balance

Common Mistakes

• Using on an uneven surface
• Standing with a narrow stance initially
• Neglecting to engage core muscles
• Locking the knees
• Looking down at the board
