Move More!

The first step in getting active is to move more. It is hard to take the leap to a gym setting so start by incorporating more movement into your daily routine. Bringing movement into your daily life is a great building block for better health and weight loss.

Today take the challenge to incorporate one of the following activities into your day:

1) Take a 10 minute walk before work, at lunch or after work
2) Take the stairs up three flights up steps
3) Get up and walk to a co-workers office three times
4) Stand up during a phone call
5) Do squats while making dinner
6) Park in a space that is 10 spaces farther than you normally would park
