As part of my New Year's resolutions for 2024, establishing a space at my home where I could do, what I have termed, targeted exercises, was a priority. I already knew that exercising in general would help manage my Parkinson's Disease, but what if I only did exercises that were proven to help ease PD symptoms? Would it help more? That's what I wanted to find out. My targeted exercises were boxing, ping pong, and dancing.
The next thing was to make a space in my garage to have everything set up. I tarped off an area that would be warmer in the winter, and cooler in the summer, then began to acquire what I needed. I set up a heavy bag and a speed bag for boxing, got a sheet of plywood and cut it in half for the ping pong table, and then my Mom sent me her old Nintendo Wii so I could play Just Dance on it. Then, to make the lighting more homier and friendly, I installed some sunlight bulbs. For everything I ordered I have Amazon links below.
So far, everything has gone well, and I am noticing a difference. I will keep everyone updated in the future.

Through research I found that our brain, our muscles and ever our heart required cholesterol to function properly. That is why our liver produces it. Within…
