Calf/Achilles stretch
Lean against a wall with your left leg in front of
the right and your arms forward. Keep your
right leg straight and the left foot on the floor.
Then bend the left leg and lean forward by
moving your hips toward the wall. Hold, then
repeat on the other side for 15 counts.
Aerobic exercise
Aerobic exercise is any sustained activity that
sends oxygen to your muscles via your heart
and lungs—your body’s most important muscle.
Aerobic fitness is promoted by any activity that
uses your large muscles—arms, legs, or
buttocks, for example. Your heart beats quickly
and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should be part of your entire exercise
routine.
Weight training
Along with aerobic exercising which helps get rid of and keep off the excess fat that our
bodies can store, training is an essential part of the exercise routine process. Weight
training helps tone, build and strengthen muscle. If you are working above your target
zone, you may want to do a less amount of reps. And as always, consult your physician
before beginning any exercise program.
