Move more during the workday
Everyday movement adds up, and short chunks of activity count. A workday offers more chances to move than it might seem.
Break up long stretches
Stand up and move for a few minutes between tasks or meetings. A walk to refill water or to talk to a colleague in person is enough.
Walk when it is practical
Taking the stairs, walking part of the commute, or taking a phone call on the move can add movement without extra time.
Attach it to something you already do
Linking a short walk to an existing routine, such as after lunch, makes it easier to remember than relying on willpower.
An everyday example
Dana sets a reminder to stand up between video calls, takes the stairs to the second floor, and walks around the block after lunch most days.
