As the school year is back into full swing, life may sometimes feel overwhelming. Physical activity regardless of what type can be a great way to help you refocus and revitalize your day. Here are some tips on how to have a healthier year!
- Set goals
Sometimes the hardest part of getting some physical activity is actually starting! Try setting a “move goal” for each day or each week, that way you have something which you can work towards when you get home from a busy day of work or school. For example, try aiming for 30 minutes of activity per day; this could range from anything like a walk around your neighborhood, playing some soccer in your backyard, or going to the park.
2.) Enjoy what you are doing!
It is important to do activities which you will enjoy doing! Playing games or doing activities which you enjoy will increase motivation and commitment to the activity which you are doing. Doing activities which you enjoy turns “staying fit and healthy” into loads of fun rather than a chore. Moreover, playing games or sports with friends and family can be a great way to bond and have a great time!
3.) Try something new!
The best part of getting physical activity is that you can discover a new sport or game. Make it a goal to try a new activity once a month, this can range from a new sport, a new game, or even a new workout. By trying something new, you are bound to have fun, all while discovering new activities that you may have never otherwise tried!
