Keep in mind that exercise should be for life. Select a type of exercise or activity that you enjoy. Exercise should fit your daily routine. Find an exercise buddy to keep you motivated. Exercise is not to lose weight. Exercise is an investement for a healthy living and better quality of life. Gradually increase the duration and intensity of the workout. Listen to music in order to keep you busy. Wear comfortable well fitted footwear. Put on loose-fitted clothing, appropriate for weather conditions. Avoid overdressing in the summer time. Forget about elevators or escalators. Take the stairs as a great way to burn calories. Find opportunities to increase your walking distances. Park your car as far as you can from your work or destination store.
SWIMMING is a type of activity recommended, especially for people with arthritis and excess body weight.
Remember… Choose activities that can fit your daily schedule…
because exercise is for LIFE!
Note: CHECK with your DOCTOR for a medical evaluation before initiating any type of physical activity.
Bring cooking water to a boil before adding vegetables. Allowing water to heat up slowly with the vegetables in it destroys more nutrients. Better yet, steam or microwave vegetables just until crisp-tender.
