Mira’s seated session 21 May 2020

Led by Mira, this is a 45-minute all seated, whole-body workout of low intensity that will benefit your aerobic health, functional strength, core stability and improve your range of movement. It is perfect if you are dealing with injury, limited mobility or balance issues.

Mira takes you through a gentle warm-up that includes dynamic stretches to ensure a full range of movement is achieved. This is followed by a round of interval cardio work to stimulate mobility and coordination. The session continues with a strength circuit based on intervals for all-round functional strength and toning up. It then culminates with core training for abdominal strength. The session ends with a short, efficient stretching routine.

We’d love to have your comments on the session and please don’t forget to subscribe to the FIT FOR GOOD YouTube Channel!

MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR SESSION

Fit For Good online sessions are a convenient, enjoyable way of improving your fitness and helping to increase your strength, stability and balance.

To make the most of each session:

  • Position your computer, laptop, iPad or phone on a stable surface near where you will be working. If you can get YouTube on your television, that's another option
  • Check the floor where you are exercising is not slippery and that there is nothing you could trip over
  • Wear loose clothing and comfortable trainers or shoes
  • Keep a glass or bottle of water to hand to ensure you stay hydrated
  • Have a chair or other stable object to hold onto if necessary
  • Place your weights - whether they are actual dumbbells, cans of beans, bottles of water or whatever works for you - where you can easily reach them, but won't trip over them
  • Exercise within your comfort zone, pausing the video whenever you need to rest or hydrate
  • Play background music if it helps you relax

WE'D LOVE TO SEE YOUR PHOTOS
