ELDERLY/PWD HOME EXERCISES PROGRAM(COVID 19): DAY TWELVE-CHEST
The chest workout today requires your existing water bottle/canned goods, etc. To hit all the areas of your chest is to change the angles of your shoulders mildly noticeable on the videos shown. Using the shoulders as the basis, the arm positions would be: just above 90 degrees from the shoulders, exactly 90 degrees and just below it. Trick is, keep your shoulder blades squeezed all the time, of course the chest engaged.
We suggest guidance and assistance from family members and caregivers for clarity and safety.
Home exercises will be muscle group specific on each upload to allow recovery of other areas. Key is to choose 4-5 exercises at random for a specific muscle group and perform them to tolerance level as to sets, repetitions and pauses. Be mindful of the form, stabilization and make sure to engage the muscle you are working on.
Please share to anyone who does and does not have access to social media and feel free to reach us for clarifications.
Post and share videos of yourselves with #kilosdavao to boost the morale of the majority and to inspire.
From my staff at Kilos Davao and our loved ones, we will get through this together.
