Do you find yourself having problems getting movement in every day? Well, here are a couple of suggestions ~

If you sit at a desk, set a timer for 55 minutes. When it rings, get up and do SOMETHING! When you sit back down, set the timer for another 55 minutes. If you work an 8 hour day, you'll have done at LEAST 30 minutes that day.

Suggestions ~ walk up and down stairs; get down on the floor and up again for 5 minutes; fast walk around the block; sit-ups; push-ups (if you can't do push-ups, lean against the wall) or, do the movement snacks for the neck located on this website.

Even if you do 5 minutes more than what you're doing now, that's 5 minutes more than what you're doing now. If you've not been doing ANYthing for awhile, 5 minutes is more than you've been doing and, by the end of 6 days, you'll have done :30 minutes that week and, who knows? Maybe you'll feel so good, you might even go 10 minutes each day ~ or more!

The trick here? Just get started!

Write a list of things you can do in 5 minutes. Choose something different each time if you want. Doesn't have to be. If you do the neck movements in the movement snacks vids every day, you'll be feeling a lot more neck flexibility in no time.

Remember, just get started!

Injoy,

Great ideas Revvell. Small bits are better than nothing. And who can't do 5 minutes of something!!

I'm often all or nothing. Never even thought of doing it in bits and pieces. Thanks!

I really like this!! I know I can't do five minutes (nature of job) but I know I CAN do 1 minute every 30 even if I go into the bathroom and pretend to jump rope or something. OR pretend to jump rope everytime I really do have to pee

Great idea!!

I like your creativity. I'll be putting up some vids here that show easy movements one can do that take only a minute or so. More "movement snacks". Thank you for your comments. I'm sure others are in the same situation.

Re:Getting Going - Walking the Talk 8 Months ago  
So yesterday I started walking the talk! I bounce (fake jumprope) every time I ummmm pee just 30 jumps but seeing as how I'm fasting that's alot of visits. Feels great just to move a bit!
