A sample tip from the programme

Resistance Training

Resistance exercise is designed primarily to strengthen muscles around affected joints.

Resistance training also offers benefits in weight management and improvements in balance, flexibility, bone density, sleep patterns and self-confidence.

1. Stand with feet shoulder width apart.
2. Hold a small hand-weight in each hand, slowly bend at hips and knees, lowering yourself until your thighs are parallel with the floor.
3. Slowly return to standing upright.

Always consult your doctor before starting a fitness program, especially if you have been inactive or have any health concerns. Remember to stop if you feel any pain. If in doubt, always consult your healthcare professional.
