ankle/balance exercises really work. Twice in the last year I tripped and amazed myself on my automatic instant recovery... with my other foot.

Whenever I am in a line, or waiting, I am on one foot or the other. At work at my sit stand desk i can stand here like a crane, with one foot up and the other down. the more of this I've done, the better my balance has become. the stakes for women are very high. Something like 90% of us are going to get Osteoporosis in our lives. And if we can keep our sense of balance, we're just not going to fall as often!
