We can do Zoom free for a max of 40 minutes.  I have a Zoom account so no need for you to open an account.
Kristin will do five minutes of guided breathing, a couple minutes of quiet breathing.  Then Kristin will continue our discussion about her Play in Progress.

EXERCISE FOR WELL AND LF HEALTHY ENTHUSIASTS
Are you doing some home exercises and walking, social distancing of course?  Here's a suggested start for you to keep your beautiful body happy, healthy and resistant to dis-ease.  
 I suggest that you do the following work-out for the next 5 days. (active rest for 2)

SPRING SESSION
WEEK 1
CARDIO:     
Continue to walk outdoors for 30 minutes, being mindful of social distancing. and/or try the videos below.  Modify to suit your level of ability.  Remember that 20 minutes of brisk walking is equivalent to a 10 minute full body/dance aerobic workout.

STRENGTH:  (suggestions)
3 sets of 10-15 squats to chair level
25 -50 wall push-ups.  Progress to a ladies pushup on the floor. 
3 sets of standing core.  Standing on one leg for 30 sec.                          Switch right & left. 
2 Wall or floor planks for 30 seconds.

STRETCH:  Living Fit quad, hamstring, calf stretches.  Gentle arm swings forward, back, side to side. See stretching video below.
