Swimming:  This is good for people who have arthritis, joint problems or have been injured.
Swimming is a great way to burn calories and is very gentle on the body.  It takes the impact stress off your body.  Swimming is a goo choice to get more cardio into any training routine.  It's a great way to spend quality time with friends or family while enjoying the health benefits. www.Swim.com is a great place to connect with other swimmers and learn about this great sport.


Biking:  This is great for cardio and building leg strength. Children love to ride bikes, so strap on your helmet and spend some time with the kids/grand kids.  A stationary bike is a good option to get some cardio in when you are watching your favorite TV show or when it's raining outside.  


Yoga / Pilates:  These two exercises are great for stretching and building strength.  Yoga is really relaxing and is a great way to start your day or finish your day.  Pilates is a great exercise that is slow and works on the core muscles.  You will burn lot's of fat and tone the entire body as well as increase flexibility.  I like to incorporate Yoga into my exercise routine when I need a good stretch.  Yoga and Pilates are good for anyone even pregnant women.  To find great yoga/pilates DVD's and accessories check out Amazon for excellent prices.  Here is an Amazon store specializing in Yoga and Pilates.




Whatever program you chose please make sure that you check with your doctor if you have any health issues or are pregnant.  Go at your own pace and watch your body transform!
