Sideways Walking
Sideways walking is an easy way of improving balance as well as ensuring your legs and hips get a different type of exercise than usual. Make sure you do this exercise on a flat surface. Stand with your feet together, knees slightly bent. Move one foot to the side in a slow and controlled manner. Move the other foot over to join it. Try to avoid dropping your hips as you step. Perform 10 steps each way if you’re outside, or if inside just step from one side of the room to the other.
