First Run

Today I decided to start my run. I was going to wait till the weather warmed up more but living in Pa if you wait for good weather you will get nothing done. So if you are going to follow me on this little workout goal then here we go. Weather you are running or walking there are some things you need to remember.

1. You have to stretch before    These stretches are the same for running as walking

HOLD FOR 30 SEC THEN DO OTHER LEG FOR 30 SEC

                         
TWIST TO THE RIGHT AND HOLD FOR 10 SEC. TWIST TO THE LEFT AND HOLD FOR ANOTHER 10 SEC

 

          BEND DOWN AND TOUCH YOUR TOES HOLD FOR 1O SEC.

 

HOLD THIS FOR 30 SEC.

 

 

TOUCH YOUR RIGH HAND TO YOUR RIGHT FOOT AND HOLD FOR 10 SEC THE SWITCH AND DO THE SAME ON THE OTHERSIDE

 

 

NOW BRING THEM TOGETHER AND REACH FOR THE TOES HOLD FOR 10 SEC

 

NOW STAND UP AND JUST WIGGLE YOUR ARMS AND HANDS STRETCH YOUR NECK BY DOING BIG CIRCLES WITH YOUR HEAD PUT YOUR EAR PHONES IN AND START GOING

 

 

 

2. Don't over do it! If your getting tired stop and rest for a few minute. If your running try walking a little. If you get tired you start to lose balance and you can fall, your breathing gets out of wack and you get to winded. Also your form gets sloppy and you could end up injuring yourself.

 

3. Don't just stop. When you finish your run walk around a little to losing up the muscles you can even do the stretches again same with walkers .

 

4. When your all done and resting give yourself a thumbs up.
