Boomer Workout: Three Ways To Improve Your Mobility

http://www.sbwire.com/press-releases/p90x3-reviews/sbwire-455028.htm By dancing to the same song with the same steps, choreographed by you specifically to restore atrophied ranges of motion in your body, the routine works like physical therapy.

In fact, the sudden realization came that I was out of practice for a lot of movements a very dangerous state of affairs for an active person over 50. What to do? A physical therapist asked if there was a song I liked well enough to listen to over and over again a song that had a great beat to dance to. The answer was yes.

CrossFit cues up competition

Plank Side Kicks: Starting in a plank with your knees slightly bent, rotate your body to the right balancing on the left hand and right foot and kick your left leg through from under your body. Switch sides. Add a hop to the movement to speed it up. Keep movements precise for safety.

And this year, there are some 200,000 folks involved. The rising numbers have given CrossFit affiliates, known as “boxes,” more of a reason to celebrate. That’s why a DJ blasted tunes on Feb. 28 for the Open kickoff at CrossFit Balance in downtown Washington, which has more than 75 athletes participating this year. Before the first heat got down to business, there was a New Year’s Eve-style countdown, which ended with a whole lot of screaming and clapping.
