INDIANAPOLIS — For today's Friday Fit Tip, we're really just marveling at those gymnasts at the Olympics and how balanced they are and the skill that it takes.
Think about walking on a balance beam. Just try to do it on a line on a carpet, heel to toe, and you can see that can be pretty challenging.
If you want to kick it up a notch, you can always get a BOSU ball and stand on that to work on balancing on one leg.
If you want to go old school, you can do what we did in kindergarten: Remember walking on the balance beam and doing dips?
You could even try balancing on a rope.
Balance is really important for all ages. There are so many different ways you can work on developing yours, and it really helps give you an appreciation for just how golden the Team USA athletes are.
