Exercise Snacking to Improve Strength and STability: ESISST Pilot Study

Each bout of exercise snacking consists of 5 exercise. Each exercise is performed for one minute, with aim of completing as many repetitions as possible of that exercise in that minute. One minute of rest is observed between each exercise of the exercise snack. The five exercises are sit-to-stand from a chair, seated overhead arm raises, march on the spot, seated arm raises and shoulder touches, and seated calf raises. The sit-to-stand exercise is always performed first, with the number of repetitions achieved recorded, and subsequent exercises performed in any order without recording of repetitions.
