Keep Moving And You Will Feel Better

People tend to be sitting or have to drive everywhere these days. When they are capable to walk or run to do some of their daily activities, we have over 602 muscles in our body. Our body was designed for movement. By getting up and move your legs and arms, loosen up your trunk and lower back muscles with some slight stretching of your spine. Stan up and reach high above your head and lean over from side to side. Bend over forwards and touch the ground, do this gently a few times until you are warmed up. Stan on both feet knees together, and slightly bent then move your knees  in gentle circular motions a few times in each direction. Stand shoulder width apart on both feet toes are pointed straight forwards, bend one knee and then step forwards with one foot leaving the opposite foot where it was .Place your hands on top of each hip to help balance your body.You can stretch your hips, knees , and calf muscles, in this position. Do this for a few times then switch to the opposite leg , and repeat the same movement a few times. Then while you are standing on one leg , lift up behind you, your opposite foot and rotate your ankle about 6-12 times then repeat this movement on the opposite side with the other ankle. You will feel like dancing put on some nice music to move with and dance a little if you desire. Everything in your body will benefit from more movement , have fun and stay fit as you can.
