An Exercise and Fitness Routine for those Blah Days by Renee Kennedy and Terry Kent

Summer is right around the corner, but there's 2 feet

of snow in my driveway! If you like to exercise outside,

or you drive to the gym, how are you going to exercise when

the weather is lousy? Plan a simple, but effective

exercise routine that you can do right in your living room.

(By the way, shoveling snow is an excellent aerobic

workout - just be careful and take it slow.)

WARNING: Before you start any exercise routine, consult

your health care professional. Start this routine slowly, if you

can't do 10 repetitions of a certain exercise, then try five.

Materials needed: two weights, three lbs each

or two soup cans

Routine:

Day One:

Stretching - 10 minutes

Upper Body Work Out - 10 minutes

Ab Work Out - 10 minutes

Cool down - 5 minutes

Day Two:

Stretching - 10 minutes

Aerobic Work Out - 20 minutes

Cool down - 5 minutes

Alternate these two days every other day at least

five days a week.
