Weight lifting Using resistance bands Crossfit Hiking Barre Rowing HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) Body weight exercises (ex. squats, push ups, sit ups, lunges, planks, leg lifts, chair dips, etc.) And more! SAFETY TIPS It is important to take precaution when exercising to avoid injury and overtraining. Here are a few general guidelines to practice when following your exercise routine indoors or outdoors: Take 5 to 10 minutes to warm up and cool down properly. Plan to start slowly and boost your activity level gradually unless you are already exercising frequently and vigorously. Be aware that training too hard or too often can cause overuse injuries like stress fractures, stiff or sore joints and muscles, and inflamed tendons and ligaments. A mix of different kinds of activities and sufficient rest is safer. Listen to your body. Hold off on exercise when you're sick or feeling very fatigued. Cut back if you cannot finish an exercise session, feel faint after exercise or fatigued during the day, or suffer persistent aches and pains in joints after exercising. Safety Tips for Strength Training Good form is essential. Initially use no weight, or very light weights, when learning the exercises. Never sacrifice good form by hurrying to finish reps or sets, or struggling to lift heavier weights. Breathe out when you are lifting or pushing; breathe in as you slowly release the load or weight. Never hold your breath while straining. This action, can temporarily raise your blood pressure considerably. Don't lock your joints; always leave a slight bend in your knees and elbows when straightening out your legs and arms. 4 P age
