When you are comfortable stepping on and off the BOSU Balance Trainer Sport 50 CM
®
dome in all directions, you are ready to practice "centered" position. Step up on top of the
dome, and place your feet about hip width apart or slightly narrower. Place your arms out to
the sides for balance assistance, or place the hands on your hips for more balance challenge.
Try to maintain good posture, with the knees "soft" (not locked) and the feet as level as
possible (See Fig. C). As you stand on the BOSU Balance Trainer Sport 50 CM you will
®
feel your core muscles (abs and back) working to maintain balance. The muscles in your
feet and lower legs are also working hard. Relax and let your body find the "path of least
resistance." You will discover that it is impossible to stand completely still! This is perfectly
normal, and as your balance and coordination improve, your body will become more and
more efficient at maintaining balance.
For more challenge, turn your head from side to side, tilt the head from side to side (See
Fig. D), or close your eyes for a few seconds. These variations are very challenging and
may take time and patience to master.
