In the fitness universe it’s quite simple for me to understand the biology of muscle growth as well as increased cardiovascular health. But how exactly does one train balance?
Or to ask more precise: what changes in my body when I get better at balance?
I am looking for the biological explanation, not exercises on how to improve my balance.
In: Biology
It’s literally your brain. The science of the mind is dubious at best but generally you might more or less accurately visualize that more of the neurons or whatever in your brain are getting lined up or being trained to focus on the “balance” which, if you’re asking from a purely mechanical perspective are mostly about your inner ear where you have a structure not unlike a bubble level. Then, taken to extremes your musculature will develop in a way that puts your center of gravity near your core (check out gymnast and acrobat bodies)
