Learning ideas for April 13-17: Let's Get Moving!
Hi Everyone! It is definitely strange not seeing all of you everyday. I hope you are staying healthy and active. I would love to hear from you! Also, if you have anything you would like to share on "Fill the Well" fine arts blog please email me at naromanchuk@cbe.ab.ca
I have been trying out different workouts at home and wanted to share some with you that you can do by yourself or with your families.
Working out and exercising at home Tips!
1. Start small- give yourself time to adjust to any new type of workout. You can always follow any online workout but modify the steps if they are too hard or start with a light workout. Maybe start with half of the online class.
2. Try something new each day- boredom can easily set in from any continued routine. Challenge yourself and set a goal for what you would like to achieve. Maybe you can keep track on a calendar and write down any fun workouts that you enjoy. You can also consider finding a workout buddy to stay fit with.
3. Changing of scenery- moving is better than not moving at all. Keep your immune system strong by trying to stay active. If you are tired of exercising at home consider going for a walk, take your dogs with you if you can, ride your bike or go outside and dance away. Don't forget if you are outside to keep your distance from everyone and wash your hands when you get home!
Here are some free workouts:
1. For all Zumba lovers- This is an hour long Zumba class so you can do in parts if you want. If you find some of the footwork too hard just keep moving doing a step that you can do! By the way, it is in Spanish! (length 1:00:30) Find it here: youtube
