Bet you didn’t know you can do many different exercises to build your strength and balance using a chair!

Ideally this should be a sturdy chair without arms. Here is just one example to get you started:

Triceps kickbacks
💜Stand or sit with your knees slightly bent. Holding the bottles by your side
💛Palms towards back of the room knuckles facing forward.
💜Press the arms back and return the arms level with your hips.

Safety Advice – Before talking part in any exercise, choose a space that is free from clutter and always listen to your own body, don't over do it. If you experience any pain or discomfort, or unusual symptoms it is important to stop and assess the situation. (seek medical advice if necessary)
