Staying in shape during lockdown

(AP) - Seven years ago Denny Hatch began feeling stiff and was having difficulty putting on his socks. His wife, Peggy, suggested he should figure out a way to put on his own socks.

Denny decided to try yoga. He began working for one hour every Friday with Sheila, a highly recommended personal yoga trainer. He felt limber, was pain-free, and, above all, had no trouble putting on his socks.

Last year, the Hatches went on a three-week river cruise. He returned home to his regular Friday morning practice with Sheila and felt beaten up and exhausted. He realized some kind of short routine every morning was needed.

For his daily session, Hatch cut Sheila’s 60-minute workout in half and sped up the movements. With Sheila’s guidance, he wrote, was photographed and narrated Geezer Fast-Yoga In Your Own Living Room. These 26 minutes a day have been part of his life for a year.

Geezer Fast-Yoga is a public service and free on YouTube.

Hatch wants you to know that he is not a licensed yoga instructor. If you feel any kind of pain from any of the moves in this routine, stop immediately and consult a physician.
