Calf/Achilles stretch, Aerobic exercise

Calf/Achilles stretch

Lean against a wall with your left leg in front of the right and your arms forward. Keep your right leg straight and the left foot on the floor. Then bend the left leg and lean forward by moving your hips toward the wall. Hold, then repeat on the other side for 15 counts.

Aerobic exercise

Aerobic exercise is any sustained activity that sends oxygen to your muscles via your heart and lungs—your body’s most important muscle. Aerobic fitness is promoted by any activity that uses your large muscles—arms, legs, or buttocks, for example. Your heart beats quickly and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should be part of your entire exercise routine.

Weight training

Along with aerobic exercising which helps get rid of and keep off the excess fat that our bodies can store, training is an essential part of the exercise routine process. Weight training helps tone, build and strengthen muscle. If you are working above your target zone, you may want to do a less amount of reps. And as always, consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.
