EXERCISE
Walking outdoors 20 minutes
A great low impact cardio exercise to boost health and fitness
Instructions
When walking at a brisk pace, you'll be able to talk but you'll find it difficult to continue a normal conversation without having to catch your breath.
The distance you can cover in this time depends on how your fitness is progressing. At this pace, maintaining a conversation will become a little difficult. I am spending so much time writing my novel, I know if I don't begin to focus on being more active
Technique tips
Walker's stretch 1 x 1 rounds
I suggest you seek the advice of a good physio therapist to design stretches for you, suitable for your own individual needs.
Tai chi wraps
0.5 minutes each side
Windmill stretch 0.5 minutes each side
Spinal stretch 3 repetitions.
Hip flexor stretch 0.5 minutes each side
Calf stretch 0.5 minutes each side
