Welcome to Day 2 of the Get Moving Challenge. Wasnāt yesterday awesome? We talked about the power of small, incremental habits.
Today weāre going to be implementing a small habit - walking. š¶āāļø
FITNESS POINT:
Weāre going to start with the basic - simply moving. Weāre going to get off the couch, get some blood flowing through our veins and stretch our muscles.
Remember, this isnāt about how fit you are. For some, walking might be no problem, while for others it may be totally exhausting.
Weāre going to cater this exercise to YOU.
I want you to feel EMPOWERED,šŖ like you can really do this on a regular basis.
If itās too overwhelming, you wonāt do it, and that defeats the point. So youāre going to start small today. Nice and easy. And youāre going to make this a regular part of your life.
Got it? You can do this!
ACTION:
Today youāre going to walk for 5 minutes. If thatās not a problem, walk for 10 minutes. You want to determine an amount that feels doable and easily repeatable. If youāre more of the jogging type, you can jog instead. š
BUT DONāT GET TOO AMBITIOUS.
Youāre going to repeat this again and again.
Now get up and get to it. Go walk. As youāre walking, pay attention to how you feel. Are you tired? Out of breath? Energized?
Make sure set your time and length appropriately.
Also, think about how you can implement this on a regular basis in your life. Can you walk for five minutes in the morning? At lunch? After you drop the kids off at school? How can you make this a tiny habit?
Before we dive in tomorrow, share your experience in the comments. Was it hard? Can you see yourself doing it again?
Tomorrow weāre going to be doing a few pushups and sit ups. Donāt worry, YOU CAN DO IT!
