Balance exercise needs to be challenging to be effective, so it is important to consider how we measure balance exercise intensity.
But how would you go about measuring the intensity of balance exercise?
On this fortnight's episode of the @MonashMRU podcast Dr Mel Farlie talks about the Balance Intensity Scale, how and why it was developed and how practitioners and patients can use this scale to measure the intensity of balance exercise.
Dr Mel Farlie is a physiotherapist with experience primarily in the field of gerontology, with an interest in measuring balance in clinical populations. Her research focuses on the measurement of balance and the intensity of balance exercise. Mel works in Monash University Physiotherapy as an educator and early career researcher and is a member of the Monash Musculoskeletal Research Unit.
