Move it Monday: Balance for both you and your dog

balanceMOVE IT MONDAY exercise of the week….

Its time to add another exercise to your dog walk! Have you been keeping up with all of the exercises that we have been sharing with you?  Your dog walks should be looking pretty advanced by now!  No more just strolling down the block!  We have been working on legs, core, arms and now balance!

 

Balance is super important, ESPECIALLY as you get older so today we have an exercise that you can do ANYWHERE!

 

You can play around with this balance exercise but try to last on one leg for 20 reps and then continue on to the other side.  You will find that one leg is easier than the other so make sure you work on both!  Start with the harder leg!

A few reminders:

  • No not round your back.  Keep it straight.
  • Tummy is tight.
  • If this is too easy, try to close your eyes and do it!
  • You can also bring the back leg up to a standing split!  We have something for everyone!

Let us know how you do and if one leg is easier than the other! Remember to work on your dogs balance too!
