Better Movement – with Better Than Bread – Become a Twinkle Toes – Easy Health Improvements

Be a real Twinkle Toes – light on your feet!

Walking in sneakers, add a dancing bounce to your step. At your desk – raise those heels, one at a time and then both 🙂

Some lightness of spirit, some playful expression!!

Why? To help your calf muscle pump – i.e. “your second heart” – squeeze de-oxygenated blood back to your “heart” heart.

So let us all be “Twinkle Toes” – light on our feet, and a bounce in our steps… Heels up, on our tip-toes, then back down, and again…

Better Rest

Pause every once in a while, and give back to the body that works so hard to get you through the day. I love putting my feet up, sometimes against the cool of a wall, sometimes against a warming couch, you let yourself rest. If you’re hear reading these words, why not improve how you rest, help your body do things better. For ten minutes or more, when you can, put your feet up, and let gravity assist.

The Benefits of resting with your legs up include:

  • reducing inflammation, back pain, leg pain
  • improved digestion
  • releasing muscle tension

Better Bones

For Better Bones add some jumping to your life.

You can choose to Jump, on the spot, on the grass, on the mat.
You can choose to Leap Frog, or skip with a Jump Rope. You can use a Trampoline, trampolines are fun! The Masaai of Tanzania do the Adumu Jump – which strengthen your fast twitch muscle fibers. You can play a game of hopscotch, with the young’uns, thereby staying even younger yourself. You can add Jumps to your leg day workout, just before, just a few – five to ten minutes…On the spot, swivel and jump to fact the other way, box jump – And then thank me when you can’t sit down the next day, because your bones and muscles felt the workout. Lol.

Jumping is an effective way to ensure your body actively works at keeping your bone density healthy. #BetterThanBread #betterhealth #betterbones
