cycling, handball and basket ball also provide good ex ercise. Dr Hines says some sports such as golf, bowling, horse back riding, fishing and sailing offer limited exercise value. Many medical experts recommend calisthenics to in crease coordination flexibility and to tone up muscles. And, don't forget numerous day to day activities around the home — cleaning, washing windows, painting — provide helpful exercsie. A Word Os Caution Dr. Hines warns you should stop exercising immediately if you experience extreme fa tigue, tightness or pain in the chest, abnormal shortness of breath, lightheadedness or nausea. See your doctor before resuming your exercise routine Also, never exercise when you are suffering from an acute infection, including a cold.
