o get the most out of the workout, do each exercise at a relatively high intensity – about a seven or eight or on a scale of one to 10. But go at your own pace, and stop if you hurt. It is recommended to talk to a doctor before starting a new exercise programme.


1) March in place: (30 seconds) – The goal is to get your heart rate up. Raise your knees and pump your arms. Pick up the pace if you can.

2) Chair-assist squat: (30 seconds) – Stand with your back to the chair. Place your feet shoulder-width apart. Now squat by bending your knees and lowering yourself toward the chair and back up. (Don’t sit down!) Keep your arms outstretched to counterbalance you. If you can’t go into a deep squat, just go halfway. (The chair is there for safety in case you lose your balance.)
