I'm too busy
Yes, it may be difficult to fit exercise into your daily routine but the health benefits are worth it!
- Make physical activity a priority. Dedicate some time each week to be active and put it on your calendar. Try waking up a half-hour earlier to walk, schedule lunchtime walks or take a walk or bike ride in the evening.
- Build physical activity into your routine chores. Household chores like vacuuming, raking leaves and washing the car can be good exercise. You can receive a calories burned chart or a step conversion chart to convert other activities into steps for your step tracker. Just downoad our free activity toolkit!
- Make family time physically active. Plan a weekend of hiking, walking or biking at one of the local trails in Martinsville and Henry County or take a walk around the block in the evening or after work or school. Check out the free trail information located in the activity toolkit.
- Break exercise into several 10 or 15 minute increments throughout your day. You can take short walks, climb stairs at work and at home or do some stretching. Be creative!
