Use your BIG TOE to grip the ground when trying to balance on one leg.
This is supposed to be well known and important, but I didn't hear it mentioned?
@@41istairuse your own both hand to walk a lot more easier and accurate rather than your foot..😂.
Great video. Brad's audio level is good but Mike's audio level is kinda low.
Thanks for letting us know!
I was just going to comment on that! Then your comment was on top when I looked.
Possibly Mic too far from mouth. Headnworn mic bring mic close to cheek😊
Gets your hearing checked, just in case
@@athenam.66 Nah, there are too many people who hear Brad just fine, but can barely hear Mike. That's not a hearing problem; it's a "sound" problem. Mike's audio is just not coming through.
And think: it's a relatively easy fix, to fix the audio problem, rather than to try to fix everybody's hearing!
Please give Bob our love, and our prayers continue for him. Maybe occasionally he could stick his arm in a shot "directing" you two so we can smile and feel his presence there. Dennis Prager's assistant is famous for handing him things during his Fireside Chats and is credited as "Megan's Arm" in the show which is both uplifting humor and a bit of fun. Thank you for all you do! You are ALL so appreciated!❤
Will do!! Thanks for watching
Hello Mickey,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
Looking for the video of leg strengthening exercises…😀
What a great idea! That would be so fun to see. Love it.
When I realized how poor my sense of balance had become, I found some balance workouts that were so easy and fun. I recovered my balance within just a few weeks. Thanks for the video!
This is a good reminder about balance. I used to do line dancing. Crossing over the feet, walking backwards, stepping side to side etc. weren't an issue then. Maybe I need to go back to doing that at home. It was fun! 😊❤️
Thanks!
That sounds like a fun way to do the exercises
Love you Mike! Thank you for sitting in for Bob and giving us your wonderful advice!! We appreciate you!! Thank you Bob, Brad and Mike for always talking about what we need.
Hello Alisa,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
Thank for all the effort you put into these videos. They are so incredibly helpful ❤
Thank you!
Hello 👋 👋,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
Ok guys. For 7 years now at 73, I was very wobbly and hard walking safely.
Three weeks ago I got junk in my left ear and went to Guidewell EC to have it looked at.
YES And they cleaned out that ear, and when they cleaned out the right ear, which looked fine, a huge chunk of dead wax came out very very very very deep. It was spooky We were all surprised. I went home that night. Went to sleep got up next morning and I can walk just fine. All the people that I have spoken to about this or surprise, they have never thought about it. And we’re not talking old people we’re talking people people. So I would strongly reiterate this to your listeners. Good stuff. Take care.
Thank you for sharing this!
I have suffered vertigo for a couple of days where the world is going round , awful and very sick. Three months now and have been left with the dizziness . Any more information on this would be helpful and have people suffered with this and now are cleared from it. I ride and do agility sigh my dogs , but riding I have just started back and hope it goes soon. Thank you will do your exercises.
WOWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Can you give us an update on Bob? Hope he’s OK praying for him🙏🙏🙏💙
Bob is doing well. He is still doing the director position and creating a lot of the content in the videos. He also posts on our other social media sites and does a lot of research. Thanks for asking!
@@BobandBrad Thank you for updating us about Bob. I miss him. Good to know he is still at work and doing his best to help us seniors keep moving. I appreciate what you all do. keeping him in my thoughts and prayers🙏🏾
Hi Bob! I know you are there :)
Thanks Brad, great info and timely!
Thanks for the update about Bob. I’m thinking about him.
Prayers up for both of you gentlemen! God bless you!
Can you give us a update on Bob? How is he doing? Miss him so much.
Me too! This guy has earrings!

@@sandrawyrick Vanity has become almost universal in the younger generations. Men as well as women. Bizarre.
@@sandrawyrick Chill. So what?
@ohsweetmystery Vanity really? So he likes earrings, this doesn't change his amazing personality and desire to help us! It's expression of yourself, not vanity. No different than someone covering up their gray hair or correcting their wrinkles. Pretty sure I'd rather sit and have coffee with him than someone judgemental. ❤❤
I’ve just completed 3 months of PT for my recently diagnosed Degenerative Scoliosis. It has helped tremendously, and I am now walking between 7K and 9K steps a day, something I haven’t done in at least 10-15 years! I really appreciate this video because the last two exercises you demonstrate are new to me, so I plan to incorporate them into my routine, as well!
Thanks again! Hope Bob is doing well! ❤️🙏🏻
For some reason Mike's microphone level is set much lower that is Brad's microphone. If we turn up the volume to hear Mike, Brad comes blaring through at high volume. The video editing software used on this, should let you raise Mike's audio level to match Brad's.
Also, Mike mentioned that “We do have a video called: Understanding Causes of Dizziness and Vertigo All You Need to Know, and we’ll link that down below. Ahh, but where is the link?
The link is pinned to the top of the comments - but here it is also: ua-cam.com/video/PhkLus1OrL0/v-deo.html
We went back to line dancing after many years away from it. We are lucky to have classes at our senior centers and a few other organizations. Balance now is amazing and it’s so much fun.
Thank you so much for these exercises and reminders. I have become less active in my early 60's and am beginning to feel the effects. These may seem simple, but in reality are so important for maintaining, as well as increasing, our abilities.😊
We're glad we could help!
Google Ernestine Shepherd and Takishima Mika. Such inspirations!😊
@@yourconnection9303olo
You guys are heaven sent. Thanks so much for this excellent info on balance.
What a relief to know this is part of the challenge of aging.
We are happy we can help
Hello Pamela,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
Added this to my exercise list. I am 72 and fell in the bathroom ..scary! But not hurt. It does make think I need more exercise for this balance. Mom fell and broke her hip in her nineties and she was an avid walker but just turned to get light off and fell on her tile floor on the floor! A long recovery at that age
Thanks to all three of you. I appreciate all that you do, and I appreciate the new guy who stepped right in and is also so helpful.
Very balanced balancing lessons , no one could have done any better, thanks a lot ,dear teachers.
Thank you, that was very nice of you to say and nice to hear!
As always, THANKS Bob, Brad and Mike. I always walked a fair bit, and fairly quickly. Between Covid and a foot injury during the Winter, I’ve seen a decline in my strength and balance when walking. I’m going to start this routine to try and recover my walking strength. Sending hugs and good Karma to Bob. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
First, Love & Prayers for Bob. Love this video. GREAT run down of the major reasons for falls in seniors & what one can do to improve their balance & decrease the risk of falls. Thank you both so much. Did a great job on this video. Be well & safe!
My husband, a week after I saw your latest video, suffered from vertigo (it was real bad). I remembered your videos on this and played them for him so he could better understand how to use the methods given. We went to the hospital and he underwent several test's and in the end concluded that this is what he had. He was reassured that the methods that we started was what he had to do. This was scary for him and he now knows what to do if this occurs again.
I had that 20y ago. In pollen season
It can be scary when you don't know what is happening but always helps you feel a little better knowing what is going on and that there are things to help fix it. Best of luck
What is wrong with Bob?
@@sherylthomson5870 There is a past video that explains Bob's condition.
16:11 16:11
Blessings I appreciate your videos and teaching a lot for many years
Thanks for watching!
Thank you guys .
I did all an past with not problems and I’m 73.❤❤
This is the most important video!!! Tks to Bob & Brad. This should be taught in a significant way n med school. Governments must share this critical - and free information. Balance is everything! Lobe Bob & Brad❤❤❤
Thank you for the update. And thank you all for the videos
Thanks for the tips, much appreciated! I wish more PT people would address that lack of balance and falls are also symptoms of MS which I have. It's not just Diabetics, but other auto-immune conditions that make it a challenge!
Great video!! Thanks Mike for showing me how to's!! Love you guys!!!
thanks!....i ha a stroke last sept and they had me do these, i was doing real good but had a dizzy spell and fell and got fractuured L1 and L2 and killer neuropathy, hips and groin and legs, so i have gone backwards and no one advising me because of the killer pains that have just gotten worse because you see so many different people and diagnosis and no help, i knew i should be doing something but didnt want to make things worse, your video does more for me so now i feel comfortable even going back to what they taught me after the stroke to move forward and what is causing the neuropathy pains and imbalance again, love you guys!!!you are giving me hope again, which i need so desperately need right now i just didnt want to live truthfully, as its so horrible!hugsto you both😍
PRAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Great video. Here is a helpful word of advice, use two walking sticks rather than one. I hiked for years using one stick. I started using two and the balance and alignment was so much better for the body.
Oh yes!! Nordic walking groups fun to join get social and physical health!
Great video! I just subscribed, I'm 73, i spent 33 days in the hospital from major heart surgery most of which was on my back. I feel this video will surely aid in improving my balance. Thank you!
You are very welcome, thank you for watching & subscribing! Best of luck!
Medical education today! They did most of your heart surgery on your back?
Great info! Brad sounds great but other speaker sounds low volume
Thanks!
Thanks for the balance tips. I have fallen many times, mostly in my garden (where the grass softens the fall). But I have also suffered numerous "minor" injuries falling in my home and on hard surfaces like concrete and blacktop. Your exercises are simple and encourage personal efforts without the hassle of therapy appointments. Thanks again!
USE WALKER!
8:44 balancing on one foot using that blue rectangular pad has worked fantastic for me. Two take offs on that: a) take the foot off the ground and extended it out in the front slightly then move it from the front around the side to the back. If necessary extend the toe was needed to lightly touch the floor. b) bend the knee slightly to work on stabilizing that joint as well.
Thanks for sharing!!
These are great suggestions! I've been working with some PTs to address my own fall issues that caused me to have some injuries. I just scheduled an eye exam, as my cataracts are just beginning to cause visual issues, which probably is one of the triggers for falling. Thanks! Jenny (p.s. I just did the forward and backwards just fine plus while doing the karaoke side-step I swing the opposite arms forward as a counterbalance. I don't use a cane so I can do this. Also when walking on sidewalks I need to be mindful of sidewalk cracks or uneven places where tree roots have buckled the sidewalk. With eyeglasses, progressive lenses can cause one to misstep as well especially at first while walking or going up and down stairs).
Thank you for your great recommendations!
Thank you for these. I have come across some of these solutions before but never stuck with them. I will add this video to my saved videos and make the effort to keep them in my exercise and movement loop!
Very helpful and sensible exercises to help with balance. I am now in my early eighties and it is never too late to start taking care. My daughter sent me the attachment of your video and I shall start practising these ecercises.
Thank you Deirdre.
Great to hear! Best of luck
I'm in my 70's and enjoy going out and taking walks on a daily basis
Hello Deirdre,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
Did anyone else have issues with the sound? Brad was nice and clear but I had trouble hearing what Mike was saying.
Yes. Mike is speaking in a nasal tone, and has a naturally higher voice as well. Voice training can help with this, moving the voice 'center' lower with more resonance. As a benefit, this would add more low frequencies to his voice-making it deeper overall. In singing, this is referred to as having 'bottom' to the voice.
It's also possible to overcome this with different miking and software processing, and this is quite reasonable these days since it can all be done in software.
We did hear that from several people and are working on it, thank you
Well explained and effectively demonstrated. Thanks.
Great to hear, thank you!
Thank for all your informative posts you guys are awesome 😎
Thanks, glad you think so!
Always enjoy learning new things from you guys!❤❤
Informative and helpful videos. So glad I found you!!
Welcome Mike! This is great information.
Many thanks for your efforts.
You're welcome!
Bob and Brad videos are excellent. These guys are the real deal giving excellent, and understandable instructions which include variations for different people depending on their ability.
I am making great improvement in my balance, and arthritis (from other videos)
Great video - just what I need now. Hope you guys can get your volume "in sync" soon. I was so busy adjusting the volume back and forth that I will have to watch it again.
Guys, I watch a lot of your videos. And I am very grateful that you put these out there.😊
Great video. Really helpful for seniors who've lost confidence in their balance. What can you suggest for people suffering spinal stenosis, who've no feedback for correcting balance? And drop foot, associated with the stenosis? Would love to hear some ideas! Blessings to Bob. Miss his presence but like the new addition of other therapists. Keep up the good work!
Here are some links you can check out for related videos: www.youtube.com/@BobandBrad/search?query=spinal%20stenosis

Best of luck!!
Great video! Thanks Brad and Mike, hi to Bob too.
I love your videos. I share them in one of my FB groups often. This video, Brad, I could hear you just fine, but I had to put my phone up to my ear to hear Mike. Otherwise, as usual, great video! Thanks for always sharing your thoughts, advice, and expertise. Continued prayers for Bob.
Thank you so much for sharing our videos!! That's awesome! And thank you for the prayers, Bob is much appreciative :)

Hello Linda,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
So so helpful. Thank you so much.
You are very welcome
On July 23, I suffered a right proximal humerous fracture. Because I fell. People, you donʼt ever want this.
Why I am commenting is not just to explain the seriousness of a fall as a senior (I just turned 65); I want to comment on this video being on point.
My PTA just started me on every one of these. I was overwhelmed getting all of these at once. When I did them with her here, my muscle memory or something perked up and said “more please” as I able to do these with ease. I had done them as part of my cardio more than 15 years ago.
I will follow you guys, going slowly, until I am cleared medically to start up my old routine, which is much more vigorous.
Awesome, thank you for this video!!!!!
Thank you so much...I have been having balance problems..bummer...at 74 I wasn’t expecting this problem.
I have started using a rollator to get around the house, and it has helped. Thank you for this video!
YES IT DARN WELL DOS AND WILL NEVER FAIL U OR LET U FALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for this important info. I fell 2mths ago and had to have hip surgery. I am doing well with reha strengthening my muscles . Today in PT we talked and worked on balancing.
Best of luck with your recovery
Keep up the great work!!

These suggestions and exercises will be very helpful. Am sure that the volume problem has been, or will be fixed soon. Certainly miss Bob, but I do like Mike. Many thanks, Brad , Bob and Mike.
Boy! Do I need this guys!! I’ve tripped over raises cement sidewalks & broken the same wrist 2x in 14 months. Not fun!
Ok- slowing down- I should definitely do, but I so appreciate your information & help here… appreciate you!!
PRAY 24/7 365!
All theses balance exercises are fantastic thanks for sharing.👍❤️😊
This was most helpful and sensible I will do it.
Your always a good guide for all things.thank you much

Best wishes to Bob.
Always good. Thanks guys.
Thank you. Accidentally I did these exercises in the pool yesterday. I had no idea I was doing the right thing for my balance. I fall a lot for various reasons
Thank you, great lessons to learn and practice.
Hello Gail,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
Thx for the advise! Hi Bob!
Thanks - great information.
Mike is doing a great job! Big hugs to Bob! ❤❤ and Brad too :-)
One thing you might mention which I think affects me is afib (I'm 72). A couple months ago I had a heart block and a stroke walking down the street. It was my cerebellum that was affected and that can result in balance deficits. I've largely recovered as I've been walking seven miles a day and have done some hiking as well. I was riding my bike a few hundred miles a month before that. In recovery I noticed that I would feel "a little spacey" once in a while and I associated it with drinking coffee or stroke remnants. But in retrospect, my balance is fine (I do yoga and some pilates as well). But I did trip last summer on a trail, and fell way to the side. I thought it might have been weak glute meds, but now I think it some afib making me spacey. Another thing is that as a biker, my calves and hamstrings tend to be tight - this makes your toe point downward when you lift your foot - not a good thing for dragging it on the ground and tripping.Your exercises are all good, but there are more things to be considered.
Thank you both so much. This is a brilliant video. I've had three hip replacements and find the 'sudden stop and side walk' the most difficult in life. Suddenly finding a car appearing whilst i'm crossing the road worries me most as it's not possible, at the moment, to stop suddenly without falling! I will practice the video until i've perfected it. Thank you again.
Thank you . Very helpful
Good advice thank you!
Excellent demonstration. Than you
Thanks so much for the great video
excellent and practical.....i will practice today.....thanks
This is very helpful. I hope you have a playlist of your videos on healthy aging. I'm in my 70s, and had labyrinthitis in my 20s that lasted for months. Afterwards i was okay but found I couldn't ride a bike anymore. I feel my balance has been effected and worse now. I have been an avid hiker (still am but got sciatica and now can't--though better now--it's also 100 during the day). I have found my hikes are getting easier and less interesting though. But it is what I feel safe with. I had PT working with balance for a few months which was helpful.
Thank you so much for your videos. They are a great help to me.
Tai chi is the single best thing I have found for improving balance. There is an emphasis on weight shifting which increases your conscious of where your weight is. Since I started taking tai chi classes, I can now stand on one foot for a lot longer than the 10 seconds that are associated with longevity, and if I DO stumble, I'm better able to right myself. Also: Where's Bob?
Just filmed a fall prevention in seniors podcast on my channel last week. How timely!
That's great!
Thank you so much again for your video! As for the ears, I had regular wax build up and was going to an audiologist every four months to get the wax removed. Then I heard through this research center - A.R.E. - Association for Research and Enlightenment, that the late Edgar Cayce who was the Father of Holistic Medicine, recommended just putting drops of olive oil in your ears daily and the wax will disolve. I did this 2 x's per day a couple weeks prior to my next appointment with the Audiologist. When she looked in my ears this time, she screamed and said, "Oh my God! Oh my God! This is amazing! There's no wax in your ears! They're completely clear!" I told her what I've been doing, and she kept saying it was amazing. I continue to put olive oil drops in my ears a few times per week as maintenance and haven't been back to the Audiologist since. Also, the late Edgar Cayce recommended head and beck exercises to improve hearing by slowly rotating the head 3 x's to the right and the left, head back and foreward 3 x's, and then side to side 3x's. This is very good for even your eyes. I know a retired woman doctor at 92 yrs. young who uses the olive oil in her ears regularly and does the head and neck exercises daily and her hearing is 💯%. And actually so is her eyesight. She swears by Edgar Cayce's suggestions, and of course for the eyes, she makes sure she gets adequate vitamin A in her diet. Good Luck everyone!😊
GREAT HELPFUL EXERCISES .. THANKYOU !
You are very welcome
Quite enlightening n helpful! Thanks a lot!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video Thank you
Two suggestions: Military & Police run-through old used tires!
Old used tires are an excellent walk-through for senior’s reminding one to pickup your feet when walking!, & secondly, tires are a semi-soft landing! Second suggestion: tight rope walkers always carry a horizontal balance bar for increased balance!, which a similar balance bar would be a great tool for balance-therapy. A hardware store sells insulation for hot water pipes & air conditioner coolant lines, which can easily be placed over a homemade balance bar for protective padding!
Thanks a lot for what you are doing...
Excellent info. Thx.
No problem!
AND PRAY ABOUT IT TO OUR WONDERFUL LORD!@@BobandBrad
I’m an Occupational Therapist and I teach Tai Chi full time to prevent falls! Lots of good stuff in your video that I can add to my Tai chi classes to build the balance challenge. Thanks so much.
Hello Susan,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
YOU DID GOOD JOB FOR HUMANITY .. LOVE YOU GUYS ..
I really enjoy your videos for us older people. I use all of your tips and advice and do all of the exercises. I want to be and stay as healthy as I can for as long as I can...God Bless you both for all your help...
Great to hear, thank you for watching! We are so happy we can help, God Bless you too!!
Hello Donna,
it's a great pleasure meeting you here, may God bless you and your family... How are you doing over there? And how are your business and family?
Number 8 for you. I was falling down a lot and had bad leg cramps. After an MRI identified my carotid artery was over 80% blocked. The doctor told me this is why I kept falling down
After an operation I stopped falling down all the time and my feet started feeling better. My balance improve 90%
Thank you! Glad your balance has improved!!
Thanks for this info. :)
Thank you so much..
I agree on the audio portion of the video that there's too much of a difference between the two. Information was excellent
Mike, you're doing great. We like you.
Longtime fan, great vid. One little request: could you possibly put a list of the exercises on screen at the end of each vid? I could take a screen shot and use it when I go to do them.
GOOD LUCK DEAR!
Thank you very helpful
such a good video! I will be off to put this into practise with my dad...he is 89. worried about him ref balance and potential fall.
How is Bob doing?
Bob is good!
good to hear, I miss him
