Hamstring Stretch
Welcome to your Workout of the Week, October 9! This month’s focus on stretches to perform before or after walking.
Esperanza Chavez (or Espee), Chief Nurse Executive, will demonstrate these exercises. Espee is passionate about yoga as it helps her stretch her body and relax her mind. She feels so much better physically and mentally after she practices. She also loves walking, hiking, and being outdoors in nature.
October is Walktober, so we are celebrating walking for the month!
