Hello, the muscle atrophy from CMT definitely limits balance, but this type of exercise can greatly benefit those suffering from this disease in two ways. By making your balance better, you can overcome the balance loss, normally associated with the disease. But also there is a lot of evidence that doing anything that strengthens the muscles, including balance, challenging exercises, Can slow down the progression of CMT
It works excellent in helping w balance . I love the fact it’s just this one exercise . I also like when you do one foot in front of the other and let go as long as you can and do w putting the other foot behind the other try balancing without holding onto anything counting to 10, 20 even 30 . I find I walk better . Thank you so much . Marie
shukriya 🙏🏻 I'm 78 and have been doing this for sometime now...I count 20 for each foot alternate and continue for atleast ten minutes. I also sit in chair and get up without touching the sides again for 20 minutes...feels reak good👍
Doug... an alternative approach I've used for a long time works for people with access to a single person shower stall... do the one-leg bit for 20 or more seconds in the stall, and then switch... no chance of falling, there are three sturdy walls you're going to hit. Brian Couch
Thank you Doc for this video ( free lecture) I d been doing this until now but not 20 sec. during my free time esp. while waiting for a Metro Bus I can do it , right foot is stronger than left foot not holding anything. Thanks so much ❤ I’m one of your subscriber now 11/22/2024 🇺🇸. God bless you more Doc 💁♀️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Curious to know if I (who struggle with MS that has affected the left side of my body) would benefit from this exercise. I currently have to use a walker. Just 3 short years ago, I was only using a cane.
As a menieres patient, I have been suffering with balance issue. I started doing your exercises and experienced severe wobbling and vertigo episode. Is this normal or I quit your exercises ?
I have several clients with Menieres Disease who have benefitted from this exercise and ones similar. But it depends on the severity. This wont cure Menieres, but it will improve your balance.
I started doing single leg standing every single day as I get out the shower drying each leg as I go, I didn’t realize I was doing the exercise until now. 😊
Yes, since this exercise has nothing to do with your rotator cuff, it’s safe for you to do. Hopefully you’re getting some good treatment to repair your shoulder injury.
I appreciate your time any time someone will take the to help people is heaven sent. God bless you and yours ❤
Very much useful, thanks for your noble service.
Happy to help

I have Charcot Marie Tooth with muscle atrophy. I feel it's hopeless for me. But I'm going to try this, it can't hurt. Very helpful video.

Yes. I have a number of clients with MS who greatly benefit from this.
What are the added benefits to doing this exercise with both eyes shut? It's definitely a LOT more challenging with eyes closed!
I beleive it can work
Very good. We need to balance the more we get older. Work the exercises keep you eyes focused on something. It helps with the balancing 👀
Beautiful n very light exercise to improve balance for senior citizens. Many thanks. Ynm

Hope you are not doing it in the bathroom. Wet floor can be slippery
Thakesyou sir thakesyou soon machinery sir saporti
I'm in for at least a month.
I have cmt as well, i just recently figured out how to flex certain muscles
Does it work if you have concussion
Yes, it can help anyone with decreased balance. Concussions can cause a number of issues with balance and this exercise could help.
Suspect this may overload that load bearing single knee joint.Please confirm it is safe enough
I go to the gym still struggling with balance
Thank you
Iam a multiple sclerosis patient I lost my balance.help me
I can balance the right leg but not the left. I wonder why?
Cant do if you have knee problem.
Standing on one leg won't our knees get affected.cud u pls tell me
I have a prosthetic eye so I would like to know if you think single vision can make it harder than most people to improve balance

English please
Very good information. But it's too long. The narrator loves his own voice. Can't talk less.
It's only 4 minutes long...I found it very informative.
Dude! You're impatient! Let him enjoy himself as he gives us this FREE video!
You are ungrateful person 😒!
Sorry!
I suffer from rotator cuff injury can I still try?
Yes, since this exercise has nothing to do with your rotator cuff, it’s safe for you to do. Hopefully you’re getting some good treatment to repair your shoulder injury.
Thank you for this video!
Thank you
