Easy Ways to Get Moving for healthy Body

Easy Ways to Get Moving for healthy Body
You can do this by making your health your number one priority to start each and every day. No more excuses, no more putting yourself on the back burner while you take care of everyone else.
Walking for everybody

You can start by getting up out of that chair and simply walking for 15 minutes everyday. This will not cost you any money or any gym membership. Just get moving.



Bicep Curl for fitness

Stand with feet shoulder width apart. Grip your band by the handles, with elbows in at your side. Start with your hands and waist level and slowly curl up the handle, keeping your wrists straight to isolate the bicep muscle. Repeat 8-12 times for beginners.


Plank Pose

Are you tired of doing sit-up after sit-up? A great and powerful move is the plank pose, which hits the core and fires every muscle that is connected to the core. It not only hits the core, but it will focus on the arms, chest and shoulders. When you attempt this move, don't be surprised when you also feel your glutes come into play. To do the plank pose, bring your head down in line with your spine. Then bring your knees off the floor and hold.

Triangle Yoga Poses

This move stretches the whole body from the tip of your fingers to your calf muscles. It opens up your chest and allows you to strengthen and lengthen your entire body. Focus on your breathing, and this pose will end up being of your favorites. Start out holding the triangle pose for 10 seconds. If you can, place your lower hand all the way to the floor. If you have difficulty, simply try a yoga block to assist with this move.

Tree Yoga Poses

If you are looking for overall balance and grace, the Tree Pose is a wonderful place to start. To make it easier, pick out a spot on the floor to look at to help you hold your balance. Start this pose by placing your foot beside your ankle. Focus on your breath, and slowly bring that foot to your calve, then to your knee, and finally up to your thigh, as the picture shows. This pose will increase your overall balance and peace. Relax and breathe.
