Helpful tips

Stay active and work out to keep your muscles strong and flexible.
Keep a healthy weight so there is not extra stress on your joints. Eat a healthy diet to keep your muscles healthy.
Be sure you do not hold your breath when exercising. This can raise your blood pressure. If you tend to hold your breath, try counting out loud when exercising. If any exercise bothers you, stop right away.
Always warm up before stretching. Heated muscles stretch much easier than cool muscles. Stretching cool muscles can lead to injury.
Try walking or cycling at an easy pace for a few minutes to warm up your muscles. Do this again after exercising.
Never bounce when doing stretches.
After exercising, it is a good idea to use ice. Place an ice pack or a bag of frozen peas wrapped in a towel over the painful part. Never put ice right on the skin. Do not leave the ice on more than 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Ice after activity may help decrease pain and swelling. Never ice before stretching.
Doing exercises before a meal may be a good way to get into a routine.
Exercise may be slightly uncomfortable, but you should not have sharp pains. If you do get sharp pains, stop what you are doing. If the sharp pains continue, call your doctor.
