Saturday's WorkOut for old people [View all]

Good Morning

Saturday's Workout for old people.

Starting your physical training: Stretch. Walk one mile in 1/4 increments. DRINK WATER and just relax.


Mid Level: Stretch, 5 pull ups, 10 push-ups, 15 squats. 1/4 mile run. Up to 400 calories.


Advance: Stretch. 10 Pull ups, 20 Push ups, 20 squats, 1/4 Mile run. Up to 600 calories.

REMEMBER ONE THING:
If you are out of shape and fear the embarrassment of what others might say.... in my last 20 years doing PT NEVER, have I ever heard anything derogatory said to people doing physical training. Most times you will find somebody that instead of criticizing or making fun of you will give you hints and tips on how do it better.


PLEASE, IF YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS POST THEM SO EVERYBODY READING THIS CAN BENEFIT FROM IT.
