Higher chance of cases for poor left leg balancing at high pressure obtained relative to the risk ratio of chance at normal pressure and at low pressure. Conclusion: The behavioral changing towards more active preventive physical exercise, like increase in the number of different exercises, daily kilometers travelled during a walk, significantly improves static balance, as well as blood pressure management. This is one of the significant factors in maintaining the ability of older people to successfully perform balancing and, as a result, improving human health
