Balance and pinning the tail on the donkey are not far removed from each other. We make do with two out of three physical attributes – vision, vestibular system (everything going on inside the inner ear) and proprioception* (awareness of movement and position) while having fun at the party.
If we hear of a neighbor falling, though, online articles about how to improve balance start catching our Boomer/Senior attention. Sure enough physical activity shows up as a balance solution. Exercise takes us a solid notch above the lyrics I want you, I need you; but there ain’t no way I’m ever gonna love you from the 1978 song Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad wailed by the artist Meat Loaf.
With exercise we obtain bright vision, inner ear acuity and enhanced proprioception – all wanting, needing and loving us into excellent balance – a three out of three very good deal. WF!
