Wickmeads residents enjoy Festive Fitness!
Christmas is in full swing at Wickmeads, and to get everyone ready for the big day, Antony from G Fitness came along to give the residents a Seasonal Keep Fit Class. The session included stretching and dancing, along with a lot of singing to get everyone warmed up.
Next, the footballs came out for hand and eye coordination exercises, followed by balancing the ball to ensure nobody dropped it on the floor, which required a lot of concentration. Then it was time for the tinsel pom poms, which were shaken along to some good old rock ‘n’ roll, making the residents feel like they were rocking around the Christmas tree.
Jean commented that the workout was certainly helping to burn off a few pounds, so she wouldn’t feel guilty about having an extra serving of Christmas pudding.
Finally, it was time to wish Antony a good Christmas and New Year, and the residents looked forward to his return to help shed the extra pounds gained over the Yuletide.
