Below you will find a description of my exercise as well as a couple of sample pictures.

The Baby Boomer's Exercise

We know everybody can be fit with a right approach. Daily exercise is considered the right approach to a better living!

Stretches and deep breathing is recommended for those who are out of shape, suffer from minor physical ailments or, try to find a solution to our weight problem.

The proper combination of Stretches and breathings help to;

1. Tone the muscles

2. Increases flexibility

3. Helps burn calories.

To obtain the best results? All you need is a few minutes a day or a few times a week exercise BUT MAKE A HABIT OF IT.

My program is divided into three parts, which could be used at your convenience and leisure:

Part One - Warm-up

No exercise is beneficial if it has not started with a complete warm-up. This is very important because a warmed-up muscle is one that is protected from injury. Keeping this in mind, our program start with a few warm-up movements that get the blood flowing and prepares you for the follow-up stretches.

Part two - Lower body

From warm-up we move on to a more demanding movements on the floor concentrating from the toes to back and shoulders. The objective is to increase the blood flow to each area as we work your body in a systematic, sequential order-legs, trunk, pelvis, back, stomach, and shoulders. These exercises will leave your body in perfect alignment, prepared for whatever the rest of your day has in store.

Upon completion of the floor exercises, we will move to upper body movements and will concentrate on legs, stomach, shoulders, arms, and chest hips and ankles muscles. This program will end with a few moments of stress-free contemplation and deep breathing which relaxes all parts of your body, getting you ready to face the adventure and challenges of your daily life.

Part Three - Upper body

This program is designed for those of us who are labelled as the "baby boomer"generation. It includes great movements combining stretches, breathing, and muscle control and muscle tones. What make these exercises unique are the sequence in which they are presented, their varieties and their non-stressful muscle toning, which are combined with deep breathings.

We promise with 30-45 minutes exercise a day, you will feel re-energized and fully protected against signs of early aging accompanied with a sagging muscles.

What is also important is in doing these exercises you will require NO equipment and NO personal trainer. You will determine your own pace and will be able to PERSONALIZE it according to your needs. Our only expectation from you is the FORMATION OF HABITS. When you memorize the sequence of movements and try to master the exercises on your own, you will realize their benefits faster. This will allow you to concentrate fully on every vertebra and every joint in addressing your problem areas. Obviously, the degree and extent of this improvement will be dependent on individual variations and on adherence to the regime itself.

I recommend, however, a periodic review of the tape to ensure that you have not forgotten the prescribed breathing techniques, tucking the buttocks and stomach or isolating a particular muscle.

Remember since this program has been designed with a special order in mind, it is essential that you perform it in the sequence presented. The real beauty of the program is that it works and you immediately notice the differences. Each time you exercise, you feel your body responding as it become stronger and firmer. You will get a great deal of pleasure from seeing and feeling the results of your efforts so quickly.

The rewards of this program in a few short months are, replacement of fat with muscle, rejuvenation, better body posture, relief from back and shoulder aches, stress-free living and more concentration on your body needs.
