TOP PHYSIO SAMMY MARGO IS NO SLOUCH WHEN IT COMES TO

WALKING THE TALK. “AS A PHYSIO, I AM AWARE OF HOW IMPORTANT KEEPING A STRONG BODY IS, BUT IT’S DIFFICULT TO SQUEEZE IN EXERCISE TO HELP KEEP ON TOP OF “SARCOPENIA”– THE USUAL DECLINE OF MUSCLE MASS AS WE AGE,” SAYS SAMMY. “SO ASIDE FROM MAKING SURE I GET IN 10,000 STEPS A DAY, I WEAR LEG WEIGHTS FOR SOME OF THE TIME WHILE I’M AT WORK TO GET SOME LOWER LIMB TRAINING IN, WITHOUT HAVING TO GO TO THE GYM. IT HELPS MAINTAIN MUSCLE MASS AND PREVENT FALLS LATER ON IN LIFE. I CALL THIS FUTURE-PROOFING.” ✢ Sammy wears 5lb weights on each ankle, but suggests newbies start with 2.5lb weights for 10 mins per day while on your feet and gradually increase.
