What makes up a good exercise routine?

Exercise should be challenging but it should also be personalized or it won’t have any chance at being enjoyable

By Christine Schroeder, MOT, OTR/L

Wait…what???   Walk a mile?   Do 10 sit-ups?    Are you kidding? I can’t even do one sit-up or even walk to my car without being out of breath or something hurting!

Is this your reaction when someone says you should exercise? Most people have a ‘cookie cutter’ approach to physical activity. As if exercise is a “one size fits all” type of thing. “I have to be able to walk a mile to get in any cardio. I have to be able to do a sit-up or a push-up to be able to work on any strengthening or touch my toes to really be able to stretch.”

Owner Dan McCrory invites shoppers to stop by during business hours 9-5 Thursday and Friday and 9-4 on Saturday to see the changes, including new lighting and taking out a small room to open up the space.

The Ada Flea Market is a fun place to shop because merchandise is always changing. You never know what might catch your eye, and the store is full of bargains.

Who needs life insurance?

Purchasing Life Insurance is not the most exciting product to buy. Some people argue that it is not a worthwhile investment. Plus, it is not easy or ‘comfortable’ discussing the “what if” scenarios that coincide with the need for life insurance.

Nonetheless, life insurance is crucial for many people; the amount needed varies and depends on your unique situation. Continually putting off the decision or not buying any life insurance could put your loved ones in an economic strain for years.

Assess your own heart rate

The number of times your heart beats per minute

By Christine Schroeder, MOT, OTR/L

If February had you thinking about Valentine’s Day, why not take a moment to assess your own heart (health)?
