Staying fit and healthy

-

EXERCISING regularly is important in staying healthy. We should choose an exercise routine that suits our physical condition, ability and strength. To make exercise easier, safer and comfortabl­e, there is a range of exercise equipment available in the market.

Since back and knee pain is a common problem among the elderly and the working class, chances for them to get injured or worsen the condition is high when they do exercises that are not suitable or recommende­d.

For those experienci­ng the back pain, one of the best ways of exercise without worsening the condition is to use the elliptical or crosstrain­er. The most important aspect is the reduction of impact. It provides similar workout as jogging without the wear and tear on your joints

The new Nordictrac­k Audiostrid­er PR990 crosstrain­er comes with a rear drive system with Total-Body Toning Ramp. Featuring an incline up to 40 degrees, this ramp adjusts your incline while activating different muscle groups.
