other ways to build up balance BESIDES jump roping?

[FIGHTING_FLIP]

are there any other ways to build up balance besides jump roping? and also, what muscle promotes good balance?

i know it sounds childish but jumping on a trampoline will give you balance and an extremely strong core

Can I ask why you don't want to skip rope? Skipping helps not only your balance, but your coordination, rhythm, and endurance.

If you want a balance exercise to use IN ADDITION to skipping, you can't beat a one-legged squat, IMO. Start by using a ski pole, chair, or similar for balance.

I like the first position of planche, as well. Also called a tuck planche or a half planche.

This guy is doing pushups in tuck planche -- I'm not there, yet.



Get into that first position and hold it as long as you can.

Weighted squats and cleans help your balance considerably, also.

also going for long walks helps, sugar ray robinson, the real sugar had great balance and he walked everywhere

marciano also, he went for a long walk every night, and ran several miles in the morning

I hate skipping rope so I use tire.

Various tire(the tire got to be big though) jumps from one side to another, on one leg ot with both legs or switching positions.
