Strength Exercises
Prepare Your Space
To ensure your safety, consider performing strength exercises near a stable chair or surface (such as a kitchen worktop) just in case you need support. Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows for freedom of movement, and have a bottle of water within reach to stay hydrated during your workout.
Gradual Progression
Remember that progress happens gradually. Begin with a manageable number of repetitions for each exercise, and as you become more comfortable, aim to increase the repetitions over time.
Consistency Matters
To get the most out of exercise, aim to do it regularly and make it part of your daily routine. ‘Little and often’ may be the best approach to start with. You can increase or decrease the amount or frequency, depending on how you feel – listen to your body.
