Wobble-Proof: Train the Skill That Prevents the Fall

from The Habit Healers · host Laurie Marbas, MD, MBA

Today we’re nerding out on your body’s built-in GPS: **proprioception**—and how it teams up with your balance system to keep you upright and injury-free. We’ll start with a quick, fun game to show how proprioception works (think: knowing where your feet are without looking). It’s the secret behind walking to the fridge in the dark or snagging a falling cup on instinct. Then we’ll break down the three players that keep you steady: your eyes, your inner ear, and those proprioceptive sensors in your muscles and joints. Hit play and learn how these systems sync up to keep you moving confidently—and safely.Here is the Substack article: https://drlauriemarbas.substack.com/p/wobble-proof-train-the-skill-thatA Big Thank You To Our Sponsors: If you want the best supplement to help you on your plant-based journey, you have to try Complement: https://lovecomplement.com/?aff=62If you are over the age of 50 and want to improve your body composition, build lean muscle (combat sarcopenia), build stronger bones (to combat osteoporosis), and you want to feel your best, I highly recommend exploring the life-changing coaching offered at https://www.fitvegancoaching.com/ Their personalized, whole-food, plant-based approach helped me lose 7% body fat, gain lean muscle, and even improve my running time—all while feeling energized and healthy.
