Chair Running is a great cardio exercise to add to any chair workout routine. This exercise is designed to improve your endurance & strength.
Physical therapist, Dr. Michael White, shows us how to get an effective cardio workout in while sitting down. Follow these steps to get started: Step 1: Sit with your legs extended, toes pointed, and arms bent by your sides. Step 2: Lean back slightly so that your shoulder blades barely touch the back of your chair. Step 3: Gently lift your feet from the floor. Pull one knee toward you while the other is extended, and then switch, mimicking a running motion. Perform thirty repetitions. ***If necessary, grip the armrests or sides of your seat for balance. Perform thirty repetitions & repeat, taking breaks when needed.
