Introduction
This programme offers exercises to aid your fitness and wellbeing. It is provided by KMPT Physiotherapists. As we have not met you or assessed your personal fitness level and risk factors, please ensure that you check with your doctor or medical professional to complete the ‘fitness to exercise’ assessment form prior to starting this exercise routine.
If you feel dizzy, experience pain or any new symptom during exercise, please stop immediately and seek advice from your Doctor.
We recommend that you do these exercises 2-3 times a week.
You might feel sore afterwards, or even the next day - it is normal and nothing to worry about.
The more you do, the stronger you will get, and the less it will hurt!
