The noises enhance the exercise.

Thank you so much! You have covered it all. Had Alzheimer’s symptoms 2 years before Parkinson’s. Challenging. Last doctor’s visit bloodwork came back with low thyroid. Parkinson’s tires you out enough. Having trouble with stepping off curb. Started crying first time husband helped me step down. I can see the distance down but I guess my diseases makes me feel like I am stepping down in a deep hole. Didn’t have help going out of dining room at Cracker Barrel just going to restroom no problem I thought but there was a divider separating it from rest of restaurant. It was a gold medal strip. I was upset seeing it. What to do? Well after stopping for a minute at least I picked up my “knees” to go over it! It was overwhelming to me. Not going anywhere without help! Thanks again for video. Really have problems with gait.

I hope these techniques help. Parkinson's is a lot to get used to. Your movements have to be much more planned and intentional. I have a short coming out soon about a way to deal with thresholds. I will post it very soon.

Ps very good exercises too!

Great! video. I will do the routine.

I have a mild brain injury, if I've been in a supermarket I feel so dizzy and fatigued I start to be unable to to feel and control my legs it's like my brain can't tell my legs to move like they feel heavy and like they're made of water and I shuffle and drag the feet. Clark elliot in his book the ghost in my brain, talks about a similar thing only he would get so severe he couldn't move at all, though he was trying to push on in life, but doorways were a real problem with him he couldn't get through them, so what on earth is happening with us compared to a parkinson sufferer. We can be fine but certain triggers send us down, clark did recover with glasses from the mind eye institute which raises more questions, but they kind of talked about the lenses retraining his brain to use parts that weren't damaged.

My theory is that the stress of obstacles ("Watch out. Don't Trip. Slow Down. Be Cool.") causes interference with the neurons responsible for walking. Parkinson's or Brain Injury has reduced the number/strength of neurons or connections that are responsible for walking - it is weaker process. So, any stress can interfere with this process. The retraining makes sense because he was able to recruit some new neurons/connections into the process - he forced himself to relearn how to walk. You can do the same with threshold strategies - plan to walk up to the threshold and stop. Then step over/through the doorway and stop. Then resume walking. One thing at a time. A new set of instructions can help you deal with the stress of the obstacles around you. But, lots of obstacles can be draining. I don't have a good strategy other than significant retraining through regular intense exercise - mass retraining.

Love this I will be trying

Outstanding!

Glad you like the video. As far as I know, Nate and I are not related, but Great Great Grammy was a wild one. We could be distant kin.

Great Information 👍
