The Scientific 7 Minute Workout ⏰

Here in the states, we are smack in the middle of the holiday season! It's a lovely time of year, but also one of the BUSIEST times! The days are shorter and the list of to-do's gets longer!

Some may be wondering how they're going to keep up with all the commotion as well as fit in their exercise routine during this busy time. But, it's becoming more and more obvious (& clinically proven) just how much exercise plays a role in helping decrease MS symptoms! Whereas others might be able to get away with a few skipped workouts during busy times, most cannot afford to.

Have you ever heard of the "Scientific 7 Minute Workout"? It's a full body workout scientifically put together in order to allow all the muscle groups to be activated in a short time span! This combination of exercises allows your upper body to "rest" while your lower half exerts energy and vice versa. Below, is the link to view the blog post & the exercises, posted by The New York Times:

7 Minute Workout

If you decide to try this workout, here are my best tips:

• Listen to your body! Don't over push yourself.
• TAKE BREAKS!
• Modify when necessary. Just do what you can.
• Be safe - stand near something that will help with your balance.
• If you can't do one of the exercises, put a stretch in its place OR come up with a modified version of the move.
• Remember that SOMETHING is better than nothing! You've got this!

Most importantly...take care of yourself, listen to your body, and enjoy the day!
