Fitness Tips
"The only exercise some of us get is jumping to
conclusions, ducking responsibility, and pushing our
luck too hard."
—Wilfred Beaver
Now is not the time to go on a guilt trip...but it
is time to go on a fitness trip! Even though your
shape may tell the world something about the shape
you're in, the magic way of beginning is very easy.
Are you ready? Just tell the muscles of the face to
draw the lips into a beautiful smile. With a good
attitude, you're ready to go!
Facts About Fitness
- Muscles love to
move. It helps their cells to breathe and keeps
the toxic materials of the body from stacking up
to cramp your style.
- Getting oxygen
into the right places deep inside the tissues is
one way to prevent aches and pains, and even
cancer.
- Exercise causes
the body to make endorphins, which can give you a
sense of pleasure and satisfaction when you
exercise. You like to feel good, right? Keep
moving!
How to Begin
- Warming up:
A little stretching squeezes oxygen-rich blood
into the muscles and prepares them for more
demands with less chance of tearing or sprains.
- Relaxation:
Exercise is nothing to be tense about—unless your
girdle is too tight!
- Food:
Fluids, not solid foods, are required even before
a mild workout.
What Kind of
Exercise?
Ideas? Walk a brisk mile
daily; do your own version of aerobic dancing
privately with the radio on; and don't forget the
mini-trampoline—you will always get off it with more
energy than when you got on! Anyone care to
challenge that statement?
