Winter Wellness at Home

We’ve been trying some free fitness videos.  Take a look if you have time.  Keep in mind that since these are free, there are ads and they may ask you to subscribe (you don’t need to spend your $$); just search for more free ones.

Most of these video producers advise their viewers to use caution when doing any of these exercises/workouts and advise users to consult their doctor.

Here’s hoping you try a couple

• 7 Minute Good Morning Chair Workout with Physiotherapists Bob and Brad (10 min)

  • An excellent workout you are able to adapt it to your fitness level.
