    Hello Happy Feet community!

    I hope that everyone who was able to join us for week 5: Resistance training for Endurance- part 2, enjoyed themselves and felt like they got a good workout! If there were exercises you liked, did not like, or have any exercise requests for future sessions, please share your feedback on this post. You might feel a little tired and sore from the workout- and that’s okay! Please remember to give yourself a day or two to rest, and incorporate stretches throughout the day to encourage blood flow and recovery to your muscles.

    Attached in this post is the weekly workout handout that includes the warm-up, resistance, and cool-down exercises we completed in our session. You will find pictures and detailed descriptions for each exercise, and a modification for each with pictures. Feel free to use this forum if you have questions about the handout!

    We encourage you to practice these exercises at least twice before the next session, so that you come prepared and ready for next week. Next Thursday we will continue with resistance training for endurance- part 2, so come prepared with your resistance bands, a smile and maybe a little extra water!

    If you have any other comments and concerns, you can reach out to me directly through my email at farringtona3@upmc.edu.

    Have fun and always remember to be safe!
    Melanie
