The Park Bench Stretch
Turning this public park staple into a personal gym.
Turns out you don't need a gym membership or Tae Bo videos or even the outdoor exercise equipment many parks feature in order to stay fit. All you need to stay healthy, according to personal trainer Nancy Bruning, is a standard park bench.
Bruning has created a series of exercises and stretches people can perform easily with only a park bench. She's compile 101 different bench-based exercises, which her website calls a "practical fitness system and philosophy that takes you outdoors and restores a feeling of play and naturalness to your workouts."
