Single Leg Bend & Reach

Check out this weeks Fit Tip of the week - the Single Leg Bend & Reach.
(http://www.bosufitness.com/single-leg-bend-reach)

This is one of my favorite balance challenges because it requires me to exercise control over my entire body in order to do it successfully. However, there are many ways to progress this exercise easily so that you can be successful at any level.

Another fun way to turn this exercise into a drill is by placing a pile of objects at the foot of the dome (ie, playing cards, marbles, coins, etc.) and bending/reaching down to pick them up one at a time. See if you can work up to getting the whole deck on each leg without stepping off of the dome! Quite a challenge!
