A SIMPLE 10-MINUTE PLAN TO BUILD STAMINA + STABILITY
Getting outside more this spring is great — but here’s something many people don’t realize: endurance affects balance. When you’re tired, your form changes, your reaction time slows, and your risk of tripping or falling goes up. In this quick Short, I’m demonstrating a simple 5-movement routine to build:
Walking stamina (endurance)
Steadier legs + balance
Better tolerance for real-life terrain (curbs, slopes, trails, grass)
Try this routine before your walks or 3–4x/week and keep it consistent.
If you want the full breakdown (why endurance supports balance + joint health + fall prevention), read the blog here: https://www.dawnthomaspt.com/post/walking-and-hiking-endurance-for-spring-a-simple-10-minute-plan-to-build-stamina-stability
