Technique Tips

Right Touch Together with Clasped Fingers Pulling Down to Right Hip

This movement begins with feet apart. Next, bring the right foot next to the left with a touch. As you are executing this move, bring your clasped hands overhead and then pull them down to the right hip. You will then reverse the movement to the left side. You want to use your abdominals and obliques as you pull the arms down toward your hip. Make sure that the torso rotates toward the hip by your hands.

Reverse Bicep Curl

This movement begins with arms down by sides, palms facing back and holding weights. Next, curl arms up in front keeping the elbows by your side so that hands come near your shoulders with the palms facing front. Although this motion is coming from the elbow, the major stabilization must occur at the shoulder joint. Keep the chest high and shoulders back during this exercise.

The Chronic Fatigue Rx: Exercise

Source: San Diego Union Tribune

Exercise, not rest, may be the best medicine for the 500,000 Americans with chronic fatigue. An Auckland University study had a group of people with the disease walk for 30 minutes, five days a week, while another group got counseling.
