Low-intensity Exercise
It is good not only for physical but also for mental health. One of its benefits is the release of endorphins, also called the hormones of happiness, that will help you to reduce the negative effects of stress and a sedentary lifestyle. WHO recommends exercising about 21 to 43 minutes per day. Make sure you find these 20 minutes to: -induce the growth of your “happy” hormone, dopamine, a vital neurotransmitter that makes us feel happy. -reduce anxiety and stress -feel better -prevent chronic diseases

You’ll want to lift weights or work out using your body weight because building muscle helps you burn more calories — even while sitting still. So it may help you shed extra pounds but the real beauty is that strong muscles also help ease pressure on your joints. Today’s workout will focus on increasing your core muscle strength, overall strength, and flexibility. We will perform 12 repetitions for each exercise and go through the set once. Let’s take a minute to go over each of the 8 exercises:
Exercise 1 the segmental rotation Exercise 2 the marching bridge Exercise 3 side leg Lift and kick opt: dumbbell Repeat another side Exercise 4 shoulder press Exercise 5 bird dog Exercise 6 tabletop weighted arm raise forward Repeat another side Exercise 7 bridge overhead arm raises Exercise 8 crunch toe tap Make sure you have a cushion or padding nearby so your knees won’t bother you during later exercises
Ok! Let’s get started 🙂
Note: Remember, that if you are a beginner or have had a break in working out, you should consult your healthcare provider before you begin to exercise.
