Move It Monday to Jump-Start Your Week
We offer simple, accessible exercises to help you get moving at home, at work, or in the community.
Weekly Practices
We know regular physical activity is important, but doing the same exercises can get tiresome. This Monday, give yourself something to look forward to by diversifying your workouts.
Being more flexible means lower risk of injury, improved posture, and better body control. Get started with these easy-to-execute movements for better flexibility.
Exercise is more than just aerobics and strength training. Balance is a less acknowledged component of physical fitness that can reduce your risk of injury.
Moderate aerobic exercise increases the amount of slow wave sleep (also referred to as deep sleep) you get each night.
Make Monday an occasion to try some mindful walking when you need to de-stress for a few minutes between activities.
Want to have fun and still get some cardio? We recommend a little boogie-woogie. This Monday, dance to improve your mood, your heart, and your life!
The F.I.T.T. formula (frequency, intensity, type, and time) is a flexible exercise framework that can help bring structure to your fitness routine.
You don’t need a treadmill, weights or a squat rack to build muscle at home; with a little creativity, you can fashion a number of household items into fitness gear.
