water
Your tub can serve as a place in which to carry out some simple well-being exercises, 
which are simultaneously, exciting. Attempt to follow our recommendations: the water 
makes all movements easier.
Legs: resting on the backrest, lift one leg, bend it and slowly bring the knee to the body, stretch 
out the leg and repeat the exercise three times with one leg and then switch to the other leg. 
You may complete ve consecutive sets.
Abdominals: resting on the backrest, breathe in deeply and whilst breathing out, contract 
the abdominal muscles. Carry this exercise out slowly, aiming to complete ve sets. You can 
slowly increase the number of sets up to ten consecutive sets.
Shoulders and neck: make sure your shoulders are immersed; using a circular movement, 
slowly rotate the shoulders forwards and backwards ve times. In this same position (with the 
shoulders immersed), gently and slowly move the head from one side to the other.
Take a break between exercises, completing three full sets; you can slowly increase the num-
ber of sets up to ten consecutive sets.
Relaxation: after having completed the exercises, sit down, close your eyes and do some slow 
breathing exercises (breathing in and out).
