that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother
Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also.

Elderly
And Senior Endurance Exercises Improve Your Heart Health
Start
a walking program
One
of the easiest forms of Elderly endurance work is brisk walking. Walking has
been referred to as the "King of exercises".
If
you are a low fit person, start with 2 - 5 minutes of continuous walking.
Try
this a few times per day. Then build up to 30 minutes, 3 or 4 times a week.
Older
adults can safely walk as much as 60 minutes a day.
Beginners
or those with balance problems, joint problems should walk first on flat
surfaces or indoor at a mall.
Then
you can gradually work up to more uneven surface as your balance and joints
permit.
Tips
for healthy feet
• Keep
nails filed straight across the top
• Wash
your feet daily with mild soap and water and dry thoroughly.
• Those
with diabetes should check their feet daily for redness, ingrown toe nails and
blisters.
• Gradually
build up your pace.
• A
healthy senior can safely walk between 1 to 3 miles per hour.
Hiking or walking shoes are the best choice for your elderly
endurance program.
Regular
sneakers or tennis shoes are not ideal because they are designed for more side
to side movements in sports.
Look
for a shoe with thick soles to provide cushioning and good heel support for
increased stability.
Thick
socks will increase your comfort and reduce the risk of blistering.
Keep
Fit, Enjoy Flexibility and Fast Track Your Career in Fitness
Sick
of working 9 till 5? Want to be your own boss? Enjoy working with people? You
might not think that you can have it all but you really can.
A
career in fitness is the answer to providing you with the lifestyle and
financial satisfaction that you have always dreamed of. Fitness trainers and
instructors work to help others achieve their fitness goals while enjoying a
flexible and healthy way of life. But what exactly does a fitness instructor
do? Well the opportunities are truly quite endless. Fitness trainers and
instructors work with individuals or groups leading them in a range of physical
exercises such as cardiovascular activities, strength building and stretching.
You’ll
find fitness trainers and instructors in recreations centers, gyms,
universities, studios, resorts, the list really goes on! Many people even
choose to work for themselves, visiting clients in their home or in outdoor
public settings. A career in fitness is available to anyone but one important
first step is to ensure that you receive the proper training from a fitness
school. The type of fitness school that will provide you with the skills and
abilities you need to take your career to the next level.
