Participating in regular physical
activity can be the most important
thing you do for yourself. Being fit
means: increased .energy and
productivity, rid ,i ed stns,
proved sleep patterns, more s
confidence, effective weight con
healthy bones, possible protect
against coronary heart disease,
an overall feeling ' of well -bei
Fitness can be fun, if you just giv try!
You should participate regularly
in two main tYpes of exercise: (a)
flexibility or stretching exercises
which involve gently bending, ex-
tending or 'rotating your neck,
shoulders, back, hips, knees, and
ankles; (b) aerobic activities which
are repeated, rhythmical
movements such as brisk walking,
cycling, or swimming.
Participating regularly in aerobic
activities will improve the efficiency
nd strength of your heart, lungs
nd muscles. For maximum benefit,
o an aerobic activity at least three
times a week, for a minimum of 30 to
40, minutes each time, keeping your
heart rate in your target heart rate
one (200 minus your age for the
pper limit, and 170 minus your age
or the lower limit) . For example, a
-year-old should exercise at a rate
which keeps his one -minute heart
rate between 160 (200' minus 40) and
0'"(170 minus 40) .
Choose a variety of activities to
uit your lifestyle and preferences —
brisk walk at lunch, a jog -walk
th your dog some evenings, and
oss-country skiing on the
weekends.
20 nninutes per session tour Mies
per : week :equals.., 80 minutes 'EY
exercising:: just -80 minutes a Week;-
you can get into relatively good,
shape and iaintain-it. You -proles
un- spend more time: than. that watching
elf- television in one day! So: how about
trol, substituting some TV time for a little
ion activity?
and 2. FALSE! Muscle size and.
ng. strength is only one component of
ve it fitness. You ?Mist also develop a
stlrong heart and lung system
through regular cardiovascular
exercise and keep your body flexible
by doing slow stretches. It's not
enoughto just "pump iron". You
should aim for a balance among the
three .important, components of
fitness.
3. FALSE! Physical activity does
not have to be painful or exhausting
to be doing you some good. Anything
more than mild stiffness and
soreness in muscles unaccustomed
to activity means you are overdoing
it. So, if you experience painnmhile
exercising, stop and , rest your
muscles. Continuing could cause a
serious injury!
4. FALSE! If you bounce during
exercises such as touching your
toes, you can do more harm than
good by pulling muscles or tearing
tendons or ligaments. Instead, hold
your .stretch steady for 10 to 15
seconds in one position. and repeat
until you feel tired. You'll get to
those toes eventually!
5. FALSE! Fitness has to do with
the condition of your muscles and
cardiovascular system, not just
what you look like on the outside. It's
what's underneath that really
counts. Fitness can only be achieved
through participation in regular
exercise and not through dieting.

NEW ADDITION
It was announced at the regular
board meeting in November of 1980
that Wingham and District Hospital
was going ahead with a $500,000
building and renovation program,
aimed at improving patient services
and rationalizing the use of space in
the hospital. The board was hoping
to have the project underway by
early in 1981. The provincial
ministry was prepared to un-
derwrite $318,000 for the enterprise
and the rest of the money was going
to be raised from the counties of
Huron and Bruce and the
municipalities served by the
hospital.
