How Often Should You Exercise

• 3 times a week for 20 minutes each day.

• Schedule workouts in advance and try to follow the schedule.

What to Wear

Wear rubber-soled athletic shoes. You will need the appropriate clothes for exercise that allow you to

move freely.

Stretching

Stretch before starting your exercise session.

• Achilles Tendon and Calf - With both hands against a wall, place one foot behind you. Lean in

toward the wall while keeping the rear leg straight and your heel on the ground. Repeat for the

other

leg.

• Quadriceps - Put your left hand on a wall or table for balance. Reach you right hand behind your

back and grasp your right ankle, pull it gently toward your buttocks until you feel tension along the

front of your thigh. Repeat on the other side.

• Hamstring - Stand on one leg and prop the other leg parallel to the ground on a stable cabinet

or table top. Slide both hands toward the propped-up ankle as far as is comfortable. Repeat on

other

side.

Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain

or tightness in your chest, become short of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before

you use the machine again.
