(click link or scroll down page) Practice proper technique for all exercises - this will enable you to get fitter in a safe and healthy manner. For Strength work-outs, do the exercises on a soft mat, rug, or carpet. For Cardiorespiratory work-outs, select a sensible duration that is appropriate considering your exercise history and current fitness. As a rule of thumb, "start low and progress slow". 
IMPORTANT: By voluntarily opting to use these free sessions, you do so at your own risk. Before beginning, ensure that you are medically-cleared to participate in structured exercise. If there are any reasons that increasing your activity levels may impose a health risk (existing injury, illness, or cardiovascular, metabolic, or renal disease), you should consult your GP before using this training tool. If you incur any illness or injury you must stop exercising and consult your GP immediately.
Why is it important to be physically active?
Physical inactivity is a cause of several chronic conditions. As Dr John Thyfault and I once wrote, "Type 2 Diabetes sits in a chair". However, frequently interrupting prolonged inactivity (sitting) combined with daily bouts of physical activity is a powerful preventative tool. So, if you are stuck at home, help yourself resist the seduction of inactivity and use this free training to help maintain a healthy body and mind.
