Happy #WellnessWednesday!

Today, ERS Wellness Director Chloe Hough shows us 'Lateral Step-Ups,' which exercise our legs.

You can use the bottom step of a flight of stairs that has either a railing or a sturdy piece of furniture that you can hold, if needed. You also can use a shoebox or something else that height. For this exercise, we won't be placing our weight on the box or step.

Give it a try, and see what you think! Click here to see more exercise demonstrations.

Take time today for exercise — your body, mind & spirit all will feel better. #ERSlife
