About this audiobook

Step-by-Step 10-Minute At-Home Routines for Strength, Posture and Mobility. This is a large-print illustrated guide for the reader who wants to sit and stand more comfortably, and who understands that the trunk muscles are what hold posture together. It contains 19 fully illustrated movements and a 28-day practice calendar, with each session taking about ten minutes. WHAT IS INSIDE - 19 movements, each with a picture sequence, step-by-step instructions, a starting dose, an easier option, a progression note and a safety limit - A complete 28-day calendar, one page per day, with one thing to pay attention to and space to record how it felt - Guided warm-up and cool-down you can use with any session - Illustrated workout cards so you can see the whole session at a glance - A first-week walkthrough, a troubleshooting chapter, progress logs and a glossary HOW IT IS PRINTED Large print throughout, with 18 point body text and no wording shrunk into the pictures. Every instruction is printed at full size, which is what makes this edition comfortable to read while you move. SAFETY FIRST Every movement states its own safety limit. The book opens with a safety chapter covering when to check with a health professional, how to choose a chair, what counts as suitable support, and how to judge effort without holding your breath. The standing movements all use a fixed support, and seated alternatives are given. This is general educational material, not individual medical care. It does not promise weight loss, reversal of ageing, treatment of a condition or prevention of falls. By Maren Vellridge.
