How long can you stand on one leg?

Zonne

I can do several minutes with my eyes open. It’s seconds with them closed, though.

Crikey yes, what a difference! 10 seconds on my right leg and 11 seconds on my left leg with my eyes shut ?

I managed 1 minute 45 seconds on my right leg, 2 minutes on my left leg. I'm 65.
Does it matter if you have shoes on or are barefoot? I had my shoes on.

I mean wobbly 20 on right leg

30 seconds on left leg and a wobbly 20 on left leg. I’m 68. Isn’t it curious how one leg seems more stable than the other

Steady on! I have enough trouble standing on 2 legs

I managed 30 seconds each side but was a bit wobbly by the end. (62 yrs old). We used to do this in yoga. I could manage longer then!

I can do 30+ but i do do it most days

I have tried it on the scales but it doesn’t work.

They’re good at it though.

I can do several minutes with my eyes open. It’s seconds with them closed, though.

I’ve read that book too Urmstongran, foxie. I love watching dressage but it always makes me well up.

Reminds me of when my brother, aged 5, at a medical was asked to stand on his toes - he put one foot on top of the other.

I should have added that my 51 year old son did about 30 seconds and could have gone on to do more. Show-off

How strange, I’ve done the same as Katie but the other way round. Bit wobbly though.

I just about managed 10 minutes with a few wobbles!

Now, riding a dressage horse sounds just wow! foxie48 I read this great book in 2020 and was just amazed by her talent and rise to the top.

(Sorry to derail the thread).

One minute plus right and left. Age 71.

Pretty much as long as I want but I do 2x pilates classes a week and ride a dressage horse so have a pretty strong core. I'm 73.

I've just done 40 right leg, 20 left! I'm nearly 73.

I can stand in a yoga tree pose for about 30 seconds with a lot of concentration though.

3 at 1st attempt, 15 at 2nd go. I am 84.

I was delighted to be able to do this comfortably. However I dithered whether to attempt it or not in case I didn’t like the result! But, phew.

A bit wobbly but I’ve done 12 on each foot and think I could’ve done a few more if necessary. I’m 71.

Can stand on right leg longer than left.
Very unstable on the left foot and quickly wobble; can do 20 + seconds standing on just the right foot.

34 but I do it first thing every morning while kettle boils.

7 def not 70
