Cat Balancing

The cat balance is a method used to move along the tops of narrow obstacles such as rails, walls, or I-beams. By keeping the center of gravity low and having more points of contact with the obstacle, cat balancing can be safer, faster, and more stable than moving on two feet. Because every muscle in the body helps in balancing and moving along the obstacle, the cat balance is a great conditioning exercise. In addition to its practical uses and fitness benefits, cat balancing increases balance, proprioception, and sensitivity.

Once you get the hang of cat balancing try adding a push up every few meters to build your balancing up. Then do laps of 10m to start with up and back, then move to 20m after a few weeks. When you turn around try to stand up, turn around & keep going.
Also standing on 1 leg and bending right down is a good conditioning technique too Wink
