Movewell

Each workout features a series of movements that can be performed using only a mat, a towel, a stopwatch or timer, a chair and your body. You can make each movement more challenging or easier, depending on your current fitness level. When the whole workout is performed, it provides a balanced dose of training for cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle endurance, balance and core stability.

Begin with a 4–5-minute total-body warm-up. Use the sample below or something similar. Or go for a short walk and do a few stretches. Then perform the exercises in this workout in order, with intervals of 40 seconds work to 20 seconds rest. If you are new to exercise, complete the workout two times, taking 1–2 minutes of rest between the first round and the second round. If you’re feeling up to it, repeat the workout a third or fourth time. Finish with about five minutes of wrap-up and stretches using the sample wrap-up below or something similar.
