The Balance Board primarily works the calves, with the hamstrings and quadriceps supporting the movement. It is a strength movement performed with other.
1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Place a balance board in front of you.
Stand up on it and try to balance yourself.
Hold the balance for as long as desired.
Technique guidance
Breathe continuously in a slow, regular rhythm while holding the position. Shorten or stop the hold if you cannot breathe normally.
General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same other setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Balance Board sessions.
Weight, repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 3 sets of 8 reps at 30 kg. Next time, record the actual result, even if it is the same.
Look for more repetitions at the same weight, or a heavier weight for comparable repetitions. Total weight lifted also changes when you add sets, so it is not a strength score.
