How to derive the maximum benefit of your excercise regimen
Most of the excercise schedules are meant to give you a toned,
fit and healthy body. Not aches and pains.
1. Choose exercise suitable to your level - if you are a beginner,
work up gradually.
2. Take things at your own pace.
3. Make sure you drink water before, during and after exercise.
4. Do gentle warm-up stetches before and after exercising.
5. Wear good footwear and appropriate clothing.
6. Enjoy yourself.
And don't do the following
1. Continue with an activity if it makes your back hurt.
2. Eat a large meal before exercising.
3. Do fitness or aerobic exercises on a stone or concrete floor.
4. Exercise if you feel ill.
5. Do exercise that will put weight or excessive strain on an acutely
painful joint or spine.
