Exercise "mini-bites"? Coach Turner's latest idea on 50+ Fitness
Great job this morning Coach @Ian Turner with the idea about small chunks of exercise, adding up to some BIG benefit. More in the video 👇 GuMPers any suggestions for small bursts of activity? (Keep it clean!) In the comments please... Check out Coach Turner's 'Growing Old Disgracefully' programme in the classroom

I suggest to my clients things like: Calf raises while doing the dishes Put a few important daily items on a high shelf so you have to stretch up to reach them Sit on the floor more if watching TV etc, if possible and/or sit in deep squat (some practice may be needed to get to be able to rest in that position) Park at the extremes of the supermarket carpark and carry groceries to it Time yourself doing some cleaning chores (eg vacuuming, mowing etc), and challenge yourself to do it faster each time Reaching into low cupboards, either practice deep squats, or straight leg/back forward bends to stretch, and do 5 of them for each item you are retrieving Lunge walk to your car from home (as long as no neighbours will think you are crazy) Walking pets, or just alone, but fartlek intervals of fast pace Play fetch with the dog, but also chase to see if you can beat him/her for a couple If buying 6l water bottles, park away from home/shops and farmers carry them If walking through a park, hang off any playground equipt to develop grip strength Invite friends for a walk and talk, rather than always a coffee/drink Put together an upbeat playlist. Set an alarm every 30-60mins if sitting a lot, play one song and dance like a crazy person
