Lose weight with CHAIR EXERCISES

 

Useful #exercise jargon

reps = repetitions

sets = groups of repetitions.

Tip: get more fit while watching YouTube.

Also, this YouTube channel has some other items possibly of interest.


RantWoman attempts to replicate some information provided visually but not obvious from the verbal explanation.

The video does not have any terrifying suggestions such as "do three sets of 1- repetitions and do that more than once a day." Instead, RantWoman recommends working up from 5 or 10 reps at a time.

1. Extended a rm raises from touching the knee to shoulder height. The text does not mention overhand / palm down or underhand / palm up. RantWoman can tell the positions work different muscles and would say both versions are probably beneficial.

2, 3. March in place. From seated position, knees bent, thighs parallel to the chair: raise and lower first one knee then the other. Raise arm opposite of the knee being raised. The video shows two versions, one where fists get raised to shoulder level and the second where arms get raised straight overhead.

4. Raise leg, clap under. Alternate with the other leg.

5. Raise leg and reach to touch toe with opposite arm. RantWoman likes the demo because one doesn't have to do it perfectly and the exercise still counts even if one misses their toe.

1.Touch opposite foot from a standing position
2. Elbow to opposite knee, sone sitting down
3. Touch opposite toe from hands clasped behind the head. Also done while seated, legs bent.
