Marathon Countdown Day 6

October 22, 2014-

Today is Wednesday and today's exercise is a Pilates move called the Leg Circle.....

Human version: Lie on your back with your legs straight out
Lift one leg straight up and make a circle with that leg (start making smaller circles and work your way up to larger circles)
After you do 5-10 reps, lower your leg
Repeat on other side


Dog Version: Have your dog lie on their back
Help your dog as they make circles with their legs in the air, start with one leg and smaller circles- again working to larger circles in time.
Release the one leg and Repeat on the other leg.

 
Today's healthy tip:
 
When it's cold and wet outside, and your dog wants to stay warm and dry inside- make bathroom breaks quick and find some indoor activities to engage in with your dog. Do some pupilates or Doga.....or if you can play a game of fetch indoors....what about a game of tug?!?!? These activities will keep both you and your dog stimulated and active while it's wet and cold and you can resume outdoor activities tomorrow!
