HONESDALE, PA — Dr. Mort Malkin will present a lecture-demonstration on “Changing Your Chemistry” on Wednesday, September 17 at 6:30 p.m. The event will be held at Wayne Memorial Hospital in the second floor David Katz Conference Center.
Dr. Malkin, who has come to be known as “The Walk Doctor,” will define the term “aerobic” and list the few exercises that qualify as high-grade aerobic according to the definition. He will demonstrate how ordinary brisk walking can be turned into a strongly aerobic activity by changing form to employ the large muscles of the upper legs and mid-body.
Dr. Malkin will also review the many medical benefits of aerobic exercise—from reversing coronary heart disease, to losing weight and preventing obesity, to preventing chronic back pain. He will also discuss three additional health issues that can be treated with a healthy lifestyle that includes aerobic walking.
Lastly, Dr. Malkin will show attendees how aerobic walking is used in training for such sports as soccer, boxing, baseball, football and basketball. A question-and-answer period will follow the presentation.
