| V!VA Workout: Extended Arm Raises |
One great exercise routine we use in our V!VAfit program is Extended Arm Raises with resistance bands. This exercise helps build muscle and endurance in your arms, which is helpful for picking up grandchildren or delivering hugs.
Stand on the resistance band with both feet (sitting or standing). Place your arms at your side arms extended, raise your arms up and out, lower your arms slowly and repeat 8 to 15 times.
If you don't have a resistance band, you can also use two full soup cans from your pantry! You can use bigger and heavier cans as you grow stronger.
