Get out of that "I'm too old for this" mindset and start reclaiming your mobility with this special guide to incorporating small microburst movements into your day for better physical and mental health. Challenge your attitude about aging and rediscover the joy of movement in Keep Skipping! This book invites you to revisit the developmental floor and locomotor movements such as jumping, hopping, and skipping, and interweave regular micro-movements into your day. Written by Marian F. Perillo, a physical therapist with more than 40 years of experience working with all ages from pediatrics to geriatrics, Keep Skipping! offers practical strategies and recommendations for embedding meaningful movements into your routine to improve your mood and reduce inertia to develop a more active lifestyle. Perillo shares stories of working with former patients at various mobility levels and attitudes that affect one's outcome. In addition, given her experience working with children, she discovered that skipping and the use of a mini trampoline positively affected her own mental and physical health. Keep Skipping! is specially designed for people in mid-life who live a sedentary lifestyle and need the motivation to begin with the basics. Use this book to increase your awareness of the activities you have started to avoid with information on important tests that look at mobility getting up from the floor or a chair, walking speed, and climbing steps. This book is a launchpad to fine-tune your approach to any exercise framework.
