Chair Circuit #2: All of these exercises will be done while seated in a chair.

A.  Seated in a chair, pretend to walk by bringing your knees up and swinging your arms in a walking motion( 10 times for each knee).

B. Flap your arms up and down slowly like a bird (10 times).

C. Hold both of your arms in front of you and swing them up and down from waist level to eye level (slowly 10 times).

D. Seated in a chair, slowly lean forward to touch the floor (still seated). In this position, bring your hands to your chest  while still bent forward (do this10-20 times).

E. While sitting up straight slowly kick out one foot at a time in front of you, alternating between both feet (10 times for each foot).

Complete this circuit 2-4 times slowly then speed up if you feel comfortable

Healthy Tip #12

Remember  your “ideal plate” – half of your plate should be veggies (potatoes don’t  count!) If this means ordering a side of veggies, then do it!

Healthy Tip #11

If you are eating a salad, try adding (sliced) almonds for the crunch instead of croutons! Almonds have 2x the protein, 3x the fiber and 1/3 of the carbs of croutons!

Healthy Tip #8

Eat on smaller plates. We can get full by what is placed in front of us regardless of portion size.

Healthy Tip #7

Eating fat does not make you fat, eating sugar does not make you sweet, eating protein does not make you buff!
