Remember when Hula Hoops where in/ Well they are again? So go get one and get healthy!!!

You and your children, or your grandchildren or your nieces or nephews are in for a great treat and great exercises.  Go buy yourself a hula hoop today and get the ones with water in them or weighted they are the easiest ones to be most successful with. If a child is doing it they now come in sizes so pick their size and yours.

Don’t think because you could do it as a teenager it will be easy, you have something else coming and a big surprise!  Make sure you put on some great oldies music while you do this and make it FUN, that is the key to your coming back to it and not giving up. It is great for the Lymphatic System and great for that middle of yours to slim you down while having a lot of fun and laughing, and this is also great for breathing.

One foot in front, or open wide, hip width a apart and move the hips in a forward and backward movement.  Let’s try it before the hoop is on our body, jus rocking back and forth, get the movement going, that’s it you got it.  Now get the hula hoop and go for it, still keep it slow and smooth.  Don’t give up it will take time to get it, and you will get it. 

Let me know how you do, just do not give up!

Balance, who needs it!?

YOU DO!! THAT’S WHO.

Young or old, we work on our balance and our posture all the time, or do we?  Many times as we grow older, and I hate to admit it, after our 50’s our body changes and we begin to become round shouldered, not stand tall, nor walk erect.  After surgery, radiation our muscle shorten and scar tissue forms making one shoulder higher at times, even surgery from the lower parts of our body effect our upper parts. I worked with a gentleman who had Testicular cancer and from Radiation treatments the same shoulder dropped as his surgical side.   His balance was off and of course his posture was not very good any more. He was young in age and very athletic and extremely concerned about this. No matter what he tried nothing worked for him.  Not realizing that the radiation had shortened his length on that side and actually brought his entire body downward on that surgical side.  We worked on our Healthy-Steps balance exercises using our ‘golf club’ liner as shown in our YouTube exercises found on YouTube.com/Lebedmethod and after only a few months he was back to standing tall, shoulders even and thrilled.  You can have better posture, stand taller and it is fun and easy. Just follow us on YouTube or go to your website: www.gohealthysteps.com and look for a class on ‘find a class’ or purchase one of our DVDS.  Any questions, please comment here I would love to respond.

Sincerely,

Sherry
