Press release from the Borough of Fort Lee: Posted on: March 1, 2021 FLPL's Strength & Flexibility: A Senior's Guide to Reclaiming Your Youth Join the Fort Lee Public Library's online seminar, "Strength & Flexibility: A Senior's Guide to Reclaiming Your Youth" this Thursday, March 4 at 2pm. No matter one's age, strength and flexibility are necessary attributes to navigate our world with agility and confidence. As seniors, it is even more imperative that, to counter the body's natural atrophy, we exercise our muscular system including upper torso, legs & core. A strong body translates into better balance, walking & day-to-day functioning. In this seminar, led by Richard Portugal, you will learn chair & standing exercises to build strength utilizing a large lightweight ball, a resistance band, a small ball & muscle-to-muscle implementation. Attention will be focused upon chest, shoulders, back, stomach, legs, hands & feet. The exercises will encompass strength, reflexes & speed. All these muscle groups require stimulation to ensure vigor, agility & proper functionality. Registration required at http://tinyurl.com/flplcalendar.
