Think there’s no way you can find the time? Good news: You don’t have to do it all at once. In fact, it’s better to spread your activity throughout the week. You can get health benefits even if you split it into a few short sessions of exercise a day.
Here are seven no-stress ways to boost your activity level:
- 抓住皮带 遛狗. Your body — 和 your pooch — will thank you!
- Take your kid (or spouse) for a walk. It’s an excellent way to get some face time 没有屏幕. Keep it fun by exploring new neighborhoods or turning your walk into a scavenger hunt. Research shows that joining a group or taking a class with others increases exercise time 和 health benefits.
- 试 分钟的锻炼. 困在家里? Boost your heart rate 和 brain power with this quick home workout.
- 边走边说. Even if you’re glued to your phone for work or personal calls, you don’t have to be glued to your chair. Make it a habit to walk 和 talk. Some workplaces have walking paths to make it even easier to move while at work. You can also take walks with coworkers to break up your day.
- 融入健身. Don’t want to miss an episode? 原地步行或慢跑, 做瑜伽或举重, or walk on the treadmill at the gym while you watch your must-see TV shows.
- 把车扔了. Spare yourself the parking stress 和 log some more active time by parking farther away (or even leaving the car at home) 和 walking or biking to your destination.
- 走楼梯. The elevator may go up, but it doesn’t make your heart rate climb. 走楼梯 when you can, even if just for a floor or two. And don’t ride the escalator, climb it. Those can be active steps, too!
When you start looking for them, you’ll see lots of chances to be more active every day 和 get a few more steps in during your regular, 日常活动. 记住，每一步都很重要!
