- Discover how brain training can play a crucial role in preventing falls! In this video, I'll walk you through some unique and critical tests, like the Stroop test and anti-saccades, that reveal how your brain's ability to inhibit reflexive actions can significantly impact your fall risk.
These tests, which are often overlooked, are essential for identifying and enhancing the brain functions that keep you steady, especially as you age. You'll see how simple exercises can help your brain react better to potential hazards, making sure you stay on your feet.
We'll also talk about how combining aerobic exercise, strength training, and executive function drills can take your fall prevention efforts to the next level.
Another key point I'll cover is the importance of learning to let go of objects reflexively-a skill that's crucial for preventing injuries during falls.
Whether you're a movement professional or just looking to improve your own fall prevention strategies, this video offers valuable insights and practical exercises you can easily integrate into your routine.
Stick around to learn more and don't forget that we have a live and live-streamed course on a modern, brain-based approach to fall prevention and fall preparation coming up in June. You can read more about it and register here! zhealtheducati...

This fall prevention video series you are doing is so important 💪🙏 Thanks Doc!
Absolutely enjoy the training you offer. Looking forward to this course!
Thank you for this.
Peripheral vision training. Alternate toe heel balance training are good tools. When addressing an elderly person with poor balance square up in front of them. If you greet them from the side or behind, they will instinctively turn to you and possibly lose balance.
Great❤❤❤, yes I would love to see more drills🙏🏻
