Fit at 50
The World Health Organisation says that physical inactivity has now become one of the biggest threats to our health and wellbeing in the 21st Century, and the older you get, the more important moving becomes.
As we age, our body systems, structures, and functions start to deteriorate, but there is a lot we can do to slow down or prevent this from happening simply by doing a little bit of exercise… because ANYONE can fit in 5 minutes to get fit.
Fit in 5 at 50+ is an easy-to-implement series of short exercises performed at various times throughout the day in manageable "bite-sized" chunks that give exactly the same health benefits as exercising in one long session.
In this book, you get 57 of the best, most effective exercises to get healthy and stay healthy, all fully explained and with clear, easy-to-follow photographs, as well as 12 resistance band routines.
There are also separate chapters on neck exercises, eye exercises, breathing techniques, and qigong.
However, Fit in 5 at 50+ is so much more than just a book of exercises… it's also a goldmine of health tips and advice that can change your entire life for the better and benefit you for many years to come!
Neck exercises - we all suffer from "tech neck" to some degree which can lead to headaches, tinnitus, and vision problems.
Eye exercises – screen usage and aging can take their toll on your eyes. These special eye exercises relieve eye strain and help recover sharp, clear vision.
Breathing - learn how to escape what some doctors are calling the "epidemic" of dysfunctional breathing and so avoid or reverse many of today's chronic health conditions.
Qigong - an ancient Chinese healing practice whose benefits include lowered stress, anxiety, and blood pressure, and can also improve balance and flexibility. It may even reduce your risk of certain chronic diseases.
Mental Health – it's been proved time and again that those who stay active have much better mental health.
Aches and Pains – being active helps to greatly reduce the joint and muscle pain usually associated with getting older.
Fit in 5 at 50+ is flexible, suits your lifestyle, is easy to do, and… it WORKS!
