Proprioception is a component of your body’s balance system and tells you where your body is in space, the amount of force acting on your body for example, when landing from a jump, or the estimated force you need to do something, such as pick up a heavy object.
Here Are 10 At-home Exercises To Improve Your Proprioception.
