Not everything you do for physical fitness has to be some gladiator like weight baring movement or extended periods of throat drying cardio.
Even though the strain is minimal, balance drills have been universally difficult for many of my students since I started using them in my own and teaching regiments.
The first balance drill is called the Hovering Foot. You're going to stand with your feet together.
Lift one of your feet so that it's hovering a few inches off of the ground. When you do this try to stabilize before making any other movements.
Bend down and touch the ground with BOTH HANDS! Don't simply cringe one arm to the floor. You need to utilize both hands and yes you can use the ground to stabilize yourself. Only after you have reached the ground with your movements controlled, DO NOT use the floor as a crash/stopping surface.
From here stand back up with your foot in the same exact spot.
The catch is that your hovering foot cannot move up, down, or around the entire time you are reaching for the ground and standing back up. I try to do these 5-10 times each foot.
