Mark D.
Use bodyweight lunges as part of your dynamic warm-up or as a strength exercise. Bodyweight lunges are great... compensate for weaker leg).You also need adequate core strength to keep your body upright during the lunge. Walking

I ran across this video of a rabbits lungs being ventilated outside of the body, yes not rabbit just the lungs, and it show the expansion of the lungs after different levels of peep are applied. Quite interesting. Hope you enjoyed this.

Test could predict which idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients will become severely ill A simple blood test could predict which patients with the lung-scarring disease known as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are soon to get far worse, an indicator that could one day influence their treatment, according to researchers. Their findings indicate that the body's immune cells attack healthy lung tissue, suggesting that IPF is in fact an immunologic disease.
