Simple anti-aging exercises: Here’s how
Exercise 1: Burpees
You start in a deep squat and place your palms on the floor in front of you. Now jump your feet back so you land in a push-up position. Now briefly touch the floor with your chest and then immediately jump into a squat. You complete the exercise with a straight stretch jump before repeating the process. Notice : As a beginner, pay attention to a suitable pace.
Exercise 2: Jump rope
According to Joyner, you should spend about half an hour on the jump rope. Jumping has a special effect when extra weights are attached to the rope.
