I have been working closely with Tan Tock Seng Hospital and have since joined forces with their Stepping Out Team to be one of the trainers for their Stepping Out Into Healthy Life programme. The aim of this programme is to lower the risks of falls among elders with the help of exercise.
Sessions are conducted twice weekly and a session lasts for 1 hour. Exercises are done indoors and with the help of the Thera-Band Tube, strength training was a breeze!. The most important aspect of the session is the balancing exercises where participants will try to balance on 1 foot, tip-toeing, standing on your heels (amongst other things) and will do their best to maintain their balance. Exercises were done in sets to give them ample time to rest and recover for the subsequent workouts.
