These do not require any special equipment and can add to your workout without them take you a long time.

Walk backwards or sideways on a flat and smooth (no carpets or stairs). Walking sideways, one leg moves laterally, place it on the ground and then on the other. Repeat this movement 10 times in one direction and then in the opposite direction. You can vary the motion, crossing one leg behind the other, like a dance step.

- Walk on your heels.
- Walk on the toes.
- Walk with one foot before the other, supporting the heel first and last toe. Do it with your back straight and your abdominal muscles contracted.
- Get up repeatedly from a chair or bench without help of hands and arms (keep your arms crossed in front and back straight). Start with 3 and build up 10 repetitions.
- Stand on one foot and try to keep the position. Extend your arms to improve balance. Repeat with the other foot. This can even do it while talking on the phone while you brush your teeth at the sink, or while doing the dishes in front of the sink. If you do not feel very safe (or) at the beginning, try to have close to a stable surface on which you can support you until you go making greater degree of balance.
