00:52 Hello, I am Dick Nunez, Wellness Director at the
00:54 Black Hills Health and Education Center.
00:57 Welcome to Body and Spirit aerobics.
00:59 Today as we get into our workout,
01:00 we're going to talk a little bit about stress.
01:02 Well, I'm sure we all felt at some time or
01:04 another and we often times wonder what
01:06 we can do about it. But we're gonna try
01:08 and get rid of the feeling of hopelessness
01:09 that surrounds our health problems.
01:11 We can't solve your financial stress
01:13 or even what your spiritual walk is.
01:15 But we can help you right now with giving
01:17 you little bit of exercise to help boost your morals,
01:19 make you feel good about yourself and to release
01:22 some chemicals in your brain, that are gonna
01:24 give you a sense of well being.
01:25 So, I think we're ready to get started

11:11 you well when you came out to the Black Hills,

11:24 the best thing which a lot of people forget
11:26 is you folks have kept it up at home
11:28 and that helps
11:35 and we're down to fifteen seconds,
11:43 out back together, out back together,
11:48 one more each side.
11:54 Okay we're back into stepping now,
11:58 keep the arms moving.
12:06 This is a staple to any exercise program,
12:09 no matter which aerobic show you watch.
12:11 You will see they always comeback to a basic step
12:14 move, because you really can't take it away.
12:16 It's the basic of walking and walking
12:19 is such great exercise.
12:23 The big thing is to put in variation
12:25 into the workout, so people will enjoy it
12:29 and it won't be too monogamous for them.
12:38 Can you go ten more seconds like this,
12:40 and we're gonna pu in a little variation,
12:48 and okay, why don't we keep our step going.
12:51 Now we're going to turn our palms up,

13:30 Lot of people when they go for walks,
13:31 like to use little hand weights
13:33 and that's helpful as well. Brings in the upper body,
13:38 gets those calories burning.
13:46 Okay, we're gonna make a transition here
13:48 in just a minute. Okay, now we're gonna bring
13:52 arms up and as we're stepping we're gonna

15:35 ten more seconds of that.
15:49 Okay, we're gonna keep marching,
15:51 and now we're gonna hold our arms steady.
15:58 Actually sometimes this helps,
16:00 when you're holding an arm steady to start marching.
16:02 Gives you something else to think about,
16:09 good, and good, we're doing great.
16:12 The fat is starting to be metabolized,
16:14 it's got to be

18:51 Okay, slow it down, fortunately the victory
18:53 lap can be run slower.
18:56 Good, whenever we do something like this,
19:03 we don't want to stop abruptly.
19:05 Its very hard on the heart, so we're gonna
19:07 slow it down gradually,
19:15 then we'll find some more fun things to do.
19:22 Folks are looking good,

19:52 slow it down a little bit more, good
20:04 The calf muscles are often times
20:05 called the second heart. Because they help push
20:08 blood back through in the venous blood flow return

22:26 quadriceps, very good. Just like the morning
22:33 stretches back at the Black Hills right.
22:35 Good job folks, ten more seconds,
22:45 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. Switch legs,
22:57 doing good, okay and let's go ten more seconds,

24:43 on your hands and knees.
24:47 I want you to put your left leg out straight
24:52 and now put you right arm out straight.
25:01 Now, if you can put your other right leg out
25:02 and still stay in that position.
25:04 I'll be very impressed, I haven't seen anybody
25:06 do it yet. You just hold it like that for right now,
25:13 these is an excellent exercise to help
25:15 strengthen your back. Alright, lets switch,

25:50 and 1. Okay, sit down there and I want you
25:54 to put your feet together. Fanning your knees
25:57 out to the side, okay grab you ankles.
26:00 Put your elbows on inside of your thighs
26:02 and push down and hold that, hold it steady,
26:07 hold, hold, hold. Good, holding it,
26:20 its nice, relaxing move, it's a good feeling stretch.
26:24 So we're gonna hold this for fifteen more seconds,
26:32 ten seconds and five, four, three, two, one,
26:42 good go ahead and stand up. Let's just finish off
26:47 with some light trunk rotation,
26:50 turn and turn, turn, turn, three more each way
27:01 one and two and three, good.
27:10 Well done, thanks a lot.
27:14 Regular exercise does so much to boost you spirits,
27:17 it produces endorphins, which makes you feel
27:19 good inside. It also helps with other chemicals
27:22 produced by the body, to give you a feeling
27:24 of well being. That would cause
27:26 a lot of money to have done synthetically,
27:29 melatonin is tripled by regular exercise.
27:32 It's just God's way of helping us to deal
27:34 with stress, but do it for the right reason.
27:36 Look to him for your natural remedies
27:39 and you'll find if you do it for the glory of God,
27:41 great things will happen.
27:42 Remember Philippians 4:13 says
27:45 "I Can Do All Things Through Christ
27:47 Who Strengthens Me." God bless you
27:50 and we look forward to seeing you next time.
