for lack of movement and bad posture which can cause unnecessary stress on muscles and joints. At a time when we are exercising at home, know your limitations. We are all very different; mind and body. Every person will have a different starting point. For instance, a leisurely walk, speed walking, jogging, burpees, lifting or balance training. Please don’t jump straight into new exercise. Set your own challenge and enjoy working towards it. Exercise is not all cardio and muscle strength; exercise improves your physical and mental health as well as physique. You don’t need to have full mobility to reap the rewards of exercise.
Hydratio
We would never turn up to the gym or exercise class without water and refilling the water bottle post session too. Utilise your water bottle at home and sip during the day.
