LAUNDRY
1) 2 sets of 12 squats and laundry basket lifts
Each time you squat, push back your shoulders, push your chest out, and push your butt out too. When you squat, your knees should never past your toes. (This protects your knees) While you squat, lift your laundry basket and raise it slightly above your shoulders.
2) Wall sit
Take your pile of laundry and place it on a table next to the wall. Now stand with your feet shoulder width apart, keep your back straight, and sit against the wall. Keep your legs at a 90 deg angle. Stay in this position till you’re done folding your laundry.
VACUUMMING AND SWEEPING
3) Leg lunges
When you push your vacuum forward, stretch your leg out into a lunge. Hold for five seconds and come back up. Continue this till you’ve completed lunges around the whole house and your floor is clean.
WIPING, POLISHING AND CLEANING SURFACES
4) Work the arm muscles
When cleaning, move your arm in a circular motion. Lock your arm muscles, moving your arm in a controlled, slow circle, working your shoulders and triceps. Do 10 circles clockwise and 10 circles anti-clockwise before moving on to the next spot.
WASHING DISHES
5) Work your calves
First stand with your feet shoulder width apart with your toes pointing forward. Tip toe and feel the stretch in your calves. Do this 20 times.
