2. Information You Need: Creative ways to stay active
Moving our bodies is a key piece of the health puzzle and it is worth revisiting when we can. Whether it’s spending less time each day on the couch or actively going for a walk, simply moving your body is crucial for both physical and mental health.
Here is a list of some creative ways to stay active:
- Play an active game with household members
- Clean or organize parts of your house
- Walk around or stretch during commercials or while on the phone
- Garden or do yard work
- Walk around your yard or neighborhood with music or an audiobook
- Stand up as much as possible, especially if you work from home or spend hours on the computer
- If you have stairs, climb up and down them for 10 minutes, as fast or slow as you need to
- Turn on music and have a dance party
- Set an alarm and move every hour: from getting a glass of water to jumping jacks, anything counts
- For more of a challenge, create a circuit of bodyweight exercises for yourself. Some ideas include wall sits, planks, squats, lunges, high knees, and tricep dips.
