Go up and down the stairs

You have heard many times that for your health you should choose the stairs instead of the elevator. However, accept this fact and start using stairs. Because going up and down stairs accelerates your heartbeat, helps you balance and strengthen your leg muscles. If you want more leg muscles, you can climb the stairs two steps at a time. Your heart will be grateful to you in the long run.

Take Your Meetings on a Walk

If you have a work-from-home arrangement, do not condemn yourself to inactivity. Consider this. You can take some of your online meetings by going for a walk. If there's no need to look at the screen, plug in your headphones and go for a walk. You can even include your meeting friends in your walk.

Use an Exercise Ball

Use a stability ball instead of an office chair. First of all, your posture can improve and your back pain can be relieved while sitting on stability balls. While sitting, you can make light movements for your neck, pelvis and spine. Try doing movements like spinning a hula hoop, you can also tighten and relax your hips.

Park Your Vehicle Far Away

Are you saying that you drive everywhere by car and never walk? While saying this, do something beneficial for your health and park your car in a distant place, not at the closest point to your destination. So you force yourself to take steps. You will make a contribution to your health. If you use your car every day, parking 10 minutes away will bring you closer to the 7 thousand steps you need to take during the day. You may think you are saving time when you park your car at the nearest spot, but you are investing in your health.

Take Animals for a Walk

When you have a dog, you will need to take it for walks several times a day. If you don't have a pet, you can become a volunteer family. You can take animals in shelters for a walk. You can get information about the volunteer family in your area. When you take them for a ride, you are doing something beneficial for both them and your own health.

Lets dance

If you don't like dancing outside, you can dance at home while cooking, doing laundry or cleaning. Dancing is a good way to burn calories and improve balance and coordination. If you do not live alone at home, you can include other members of the household in this activity. You can even turn it into a fun competition.

Bring Games to Life

If you have habits such as playing card or board games with your family or friends, you can replace them with more active ones. Instead of table-based games, choose games where your whole body can move. You can move around with games such as hide and seek, chair grabbing, and sack contest. These games, which you can play outside, can also take you back to your childhood.

Exercise in Front of Television

Do you have a habit of watching television while lying down? And if you are consuming snacks in front of the TV. While this may cause you to lose weight, it takes away a lot from your health. Instead, you can ride a bike, do stretching exercises, lift weights or do pilates while watching something. In fact, if you set a goal for yourself and follow a 30-minute program, you will exercise for 30 minutes.

Implementing all the suggestions listed above may seem scary. However, when you add a few of these to your daily life, you will have taken a step forward. Without realizing it, you will start moving more.
