Low Impact Core Strength Workout

How are you or how do you feel are the questions that we hear every day. Even if we always answer “All-right”, our body might think differently. The question itself means that our well-being is directly connected to our ability to pay attention to our body, to be aware of all its parts. Imagine your typical day at work, when it’s been hours since you drank water or stood up for some little exercise. In these moments, when you are focused on something else other than your body, it fails to communicate to you. When you don’t hear your body signals, it always leads to health-related issues in the long run. So, what can you do?

Make small breaks! Even 1 minute is better than nothing. Stand up, do some stretching and help your body understand that you see it and its needs.

Remember that our energy is where our attention is. Pay attention to your body and it will pay you back with radiant health.

Make your blood circulate by making time for some exercising at least 3 times a week. If you can make it, it’s all right. Apply a step-by-step approach and try to introduce the changes slowly

Here is a little suggestion of a low-intensity workout by @bodyholic

Hi, my name is Di Katz Shachar. I am a fitness and health professional with over 15 years of experience and I am so happy you are joining me today. If you have an underactive thyroid or hypothyroidism, exercising might be a challenge due to low energy, muscle pain, and joint pain. Now, even though exercise will not boost T3 and T4, there are many other benefits you can absolutely reap from a workout. You will most likely find some kind of relief for symptoms like fatigue, swelling, joint pain, and muscle pain. 

Another important factor is that exercise also boosts your mood, which makes it absolutely worth it either way. Today’s workout will focus on increasing your core muscle strength, upper and lower body strength, and endurance.

We will perform 10 repetitions for each exercise and go through the set twice. Let’s go over each exercise.

  • Exercise 1 the cat camel x 10
  • Exercise 2 the bridge x 10
  • Exercise 3 side leg Lift x 10 opt: dumbbell 
  • Repeat another side 
  • Exercise 4 no weight seated chest fly x 10
  • Exercise 5 triceps cobra x 10

You might want to pad up your knees with a folded towel, cushion, or thick mat. Ok, let’s get onto our mat into a tabletop position.

Let’s get started, shall we?
