Adopt healthy habits of staying physically active
from Eat Move Sleep: How Small Choices Lead to Big Changes by Tom Rath
How to Apply This
- Exercise before breakfast.
This will help you burn additional fat and improve glucose tolerance. - Take small steps during long flights or long road trips.
Extended periods of inactivity could raise oxidative stress and slow insulin response and metabolic activity. - Indulge in intensive workout exercises to burn calories each day.
For example, ride a stationary bicycle at high intensity for 45 minutes. - Exercise in a natural environment.
Outdoor exercises such as walking, cycling, and hiking yield more benefits than indoor workouts because they increase energy and positive emotions. - Distribute the weight of the things you’re carrying.
When carrying your handbag for more than a block, switch sides or use a backpack to balance the weight. Similarly, split them into two light bags when doing groceries instead of putting them in one heavy one. - Switch hands to operate your mouse pad.
If you have used your right hand too long, try using the left one.
