Exercises

daily morning hygienic gymnastics. Exercises strengthen and develop the muscle system, heighten vital activity and the capacity to work, and contribute to the hardiness of the organism. For people who engage in mental work and lead a sedentary life, they are of particular importance. A set lasting 10-15 minutes consists of eight to ten exercises for the muscles of the arms, the legs, and the abdominal press. At least once or twice a month the exercises are changed or modified.
