Workout Tips from Bob
On a bike, in the water or in your office!

"A bicycle is one of the most important things you can ever own to stay healthy. Instead of driving everywhere, try biking. When you start, warm up for 5 minutes and once you get your heart rate up, keep it there for at least 20. When you're finished, go in a slow steady pace for another 5 minutes. It's effective and something you'll never forget, just like riding a bike."

"Working out in the water is perfect for people with bad joints or certain ailments. Here are some things you can do; start by doing jumping jacks for 30 seconds then tread water for 30 seconds. Alternate this for 10 minutes to start, increasing your time with each workout."

"If you have a job that requires you to sit in an office 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, chances are your body isn't burning the calories that it should be. Here some tips on how to get a workout in while at work. Leave a resistance band at your job. They're great for bicep curls or tricep textentions, Instead of using a desk chair, try a stability ball. You'll constantly be working out your core muscles. Get to work!"
