How do you become less clumsy?

Xenxs@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 102 points –

Seriously, on a daily basis I'll either bump my head or various other body parts, drop stuff and then drop it again, stumble over something and combinations of all of that.

Send help.

Edit: thank for the suggestions, I will start by focussing on what I'm actually doing at the time and try to be more active - I work from home and sit a lot.

FYI the way you improve proprioception as a daily practice is that you play drums. They all count. Digi drums, rock drums, Djembe drums, any drums, anything that calls itself drums. So long as you trigger the drum sounds with your body, in time (fingers on a sampler counts) we're after the whole body focusing itself around the hands to create precise enough results. Just hands on your belly works. Honestly all of music is good for this. It is actuating the whole of your body in space to achieve a result, and the human body loves it. Proprioception.

Yes! I agree. Making music/drum beats incorporates so many different body systems, it can definitely improve proprioception.

Interesting. I always wanted to play the drums but figured I was too uncoordinated.
