. Don't be intimidated by the military provenance. Their latest contribution to common-sense health is a brilliantly simple 11-minute exercise program which I believe everyone of any type or fitness level would do well to investigate.

Begin with their home page (linked above), them go to the first link on the upper left. Keep reading by clicking the tiny "next" links at the bottom of each of those pages. (I missed that the first time, and wondered where the info was to which a number of their other pages refer... :-}) Then continue with the Age Group Table for your fitness goals by age. Then look at Chart One and get going! :-D

They offer precise and thorough instructions for every aspect of their brief and do-able program. "The 5BX programme has been designed to bring physical fitness within the reach of any healthy person who is willing to devote 11 minutes a day to a simple but balanced set of exercises."

Gotta love that!

I might add, many of us rather unhealthy people would also do ourselves a big favor by adding this brief protocol to our days. :->

I'm starting tomorrow, and I hope you'll all start with me!
