Aerobics workout attracts dignitaries

Hundreds of participants from greater Accra took part in the last Accra Works Out programme of the year at the Accra Stadium last Saturday.

It was a star-studded health and dance aerobics work-out that saw soccer stars  such as  Stephen Appiah, Maxwell Konadu and Augustine Ahinful joining others in the mammoth exercise.

Other celebrities who joined the workout were Adjetey Annan alias “Pusher” and  Okyeame Kwame, a renowned musician.

The aerobics, anaerobics and flexibility exercise  was  organised by Primeval Media .

Guided by a fitness instructor and accompanied by “fitness sounds” from loud speakers, the participants were taken through yoga, push-ups, squats, planks, crunches, sit-ups, bridges and pilates.

The organiser, Larry Opare Otoo, CEO of Primeval Media, told Daily Graphic that he was committed to motivating  Ghanaians  to participate to improve their health.

He said since many Ghanaians had less time to exercise their bodies, engaging in such work-outs were the only means  of improving  their health.

He therefore urged the public to  participate and also engage in healthy lifestyles.
