water
Your tub can serve as a place in which to carry out some simple well-being exercises,
which are simultaneously, exciting. Attempt to follow our recommendations: the water
makes all movements easier.
Legs:
resting on the backrest, lift one leg, bend it and slowly bring the knee to the body, stretch
out the leg and repeat the exercise three times with one leg and then switch to the other leg.
You may complete five consecutive sets.
Abdominals:
resting on the backrest, breathe in deeply and whilst breathing out, contract
the abdominal muscles. Carry this exercise out slowly, aiming to complete five sets. You can
slowly increase the number of sets up to ten consecutive sets.
Shoulders and neck:
make sure your shoulders are immersed; using a circular movement,
slowly rotate the shoulders forwards and backwards five times. In this same position (with the
shoulders immersed), gently and slowly move the head from one side to the other.
Take a break between exercises, completing three full sets; you can slowly increase the num-
ber of sets up to ten consecutive sets.
Relaxation:
after having completed the exercises, sit down, close your eyes and do some slow
breathing exercises (breathing in and out).
