Beginner Mobility
If you’re new to exercise or feel out of shape, we have the perfect workout to help you get on track. Our Get Moving Workout in a Chair will awaken all the muscles in your body and gently prepare them to move. For seasoned exercisers, this workout is a great way to get your body moving before a workout or during the day.
Like the old saying goes, you must walk before your run. This holds true for exercise as well. It is ok to be out of breath after walking for two minutes or not being able to lift a 2 pound dumbbell for 10 repetitions. The most important thing is to just start moving and build up your strength and endurance gradually.
This workout will increase your mobility and flexibility, preparing your muscles to do more advanced moves, including cardio and strength training. Try doing it everyday for one week and see how you feel. It is our hope that you feel a difference in your body to inspire you to keep moving.
Here are the gentle moves in this workout:
✳️ Inhale/Exhale
✳️ Feet - Point/Flex and Circles
✳️ Knee Ups
✳️ Leg Lifts
✳️ Heel Raises
✳️ Gentle Twists
✳️ Goal Post Arms - Open/Close
✳️ Side Reaches
