Don’t Let Your Muscles Turn To Mush
30.10.08
Sitting at a desk all day can really take a toll on your muscle tone. When muscles are not exercised often enough they begin to atrophy. This means that the muscle wastes away and is replaced by jiggling fat.There are ways to counteract this effect, however. Taking just a couple minutes out of your day to do a couple sets of calf raises will greatly help improve the condition of your legs. Calf raises can yield that same result as the calf machines at the gym.
All you need to do is find a step, stand so that your heels are hanging off the edge of the step, and push up until you’re standing on your tippy toes. Then, come back to your starting position and repeat 20 times. Place your hands on a wall, or hold on to a rail for more support.
