Best Advice: In-flight Exercise A handful of airlines -- including Lufthansa and Northwest -- are now
showing
videos that aim to stimulate and relax passengers from head to toe
without
leaving their seats. Lufthansa offers "Flyrobics," 10 minutes of
computer-animated stretches for your whole body, while Northwest's
"Airobics"
features seven minutes of stretching and relaxation techniques. Richard
Cotton, a San Diego exercise physiologist and spokesperson for the
American
Council on Exercise say's, "During long flights, muscles tighten and
fluid
builds up in the lower extremities. Muscle motion keeps blood flowing."
Getting out of your seat and walking around the cabin has the same
effect.
