A 10-minute all-standing workout to relax and release pain in the upper body. The more you relax, the more you are able to go to the end of your movement, engaging and stimulating even more muscle cells in your body.
PHASE 2
Once you no longer feel too tired and need to recover after doing Phase 1 workouts, you can progress to Phase 2.
This is a progression from the first stage of your recovery process. You will be feeling a bit better and stronger, and can now do short, easy standing workouts.
The goal in Phase 2 is to:
· Take the next step to build your strength back up
· Increase full-body mobility in a way that is respectful and effective
· Gradually build up stamina
How to do the workouts?
· You are getting stronger but are still in “healing mode”. Continue to work in a relaxed and easy way. Remember that this is the best way to heal faster.
· If you feel exhausted after doing a longer, standing workout, alternate with the Phase 1 workouts or switch back to those workouts entirely. Learning to listen to your body is part of this healing process.
· For the first month, aim at doing one workout from Phase 2 three times per week.
· Once you can do this, you can progress to doing one Phase 2 workout per day for another month.
· Everyone is different, and you might need more time to progress to the next phase. Take your time – your body will thank you.
