with pat bradford. The fitness-minded professional can easily and successfully create an effective daily routine on the Muni.
After a full year of in-gym training with LaMaine Williams
and walking daily, I struggled to keep exercising on my own
and I was challenged by a lifestyle change to continue to eat
healthy. With no time for the gym, or even walking daily, my
weight shot back up and I was more tired than I had been. So
the Muni has been a Heaven-sent blessing for me, as has been
the care of Dr. Robert Fibich, who continues to fix me every
time I tear something out.
It turns out stretching is imperative to maintaining a
healthy exercise routine. So, at my car I do at least three
stretching exercises (below).
Left, LaMaine Williams and Dr. Fibich offer instruction about
the best way to stretch without doing harm that Fibich would
have to fix later.

push-ups , DIPS & mountain climbers
After stretching, I walk to the corner of the town park, stopping once to do more toe
touching or other stretching, if I am still tight.
I begin my Muni at the two backless benches beside the gazebo on Causeway Drive (near
where there were parallel bars).
There I do: Bench Pushups 10 to 15, Dips 15, Mountain Climbers 20 to 25 (right). A left and a
right one is one rep.
