Gardening Day: lower body
Whether maintaining the garden or planting a new one, pulling weeds or raking leaves, you can pay attention to your muscle groups. Instead of bending, do a stationary lunge or a squat. Contract your core muscles while you pull on that rake or hoe. Your garden won’t be the only beautiful benefit of your efforts.
Stationary Lunges
Standing Hamstring Curl
Floor Quadriceps Extensions
Inner Thigh
Outer Thigh
Abdominal Crunch
Oblique Crunch
Spider Smash
Opposition Reach
Stretch your hams and quads, lower back, core, and neck
Sometime today, play a game of tag with your kids, or your dog. Or, throw the Frisbee with a friend. Make this the week that you start to park at the far end of the parking lot when you go to WalMart, Sams, or Costco.
