Movement Series

Welcome to the movement component of Well4U. Before you begin the movement module or any new exercise program please ensure you have reviewed the before you begin module and have filled out the Get Active questionnaire. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your health care provider and/or qualified exercise professional before beginning.

The movement section has been created with people new or newer to exercise in mind. You will need the following:

• To wear comfortable clothing that you can move in
• To wear proper athletic shoes for light exercise
• Have water and a towel nearby
• You may want a chair close to you to use for balance or seated exercises
• If you choose to use hand weights, have a light pair ready.
• If you do not have hand weights you can use water bottles or soup cans.
• If you choose to do floor exercises you may want a mat to lie on

Finally – remember to work at your own pace, take breaks as you need. You do not have to do all the movements as presented or stay on the beat of the music. Remember to drink water throughout the movement module.  If you experience faintness, dizziness, pain or shortness of breath at anytime you should STOP immediately.
