Anne Peterson Quotes

You train your brain and your muscles to move accordingly if you should lose your balance. It's one thing to be active during the day. It's another thing to do specific exercises to strengthen your legs, and that's what we're encouraging people to do so that when they do their activities, they're easier to do and they're safe and they don't get as sore and hopefully don't get injured.
