Pick Me Up!

LET’S GET PHYSICAL

We all know moving our body is good for us.

But that doesn’t mean it’s enjoyable.

In fact, sometimes exercise can seem like a bit of chore – and with work, kids and busy lives, it can seem impossible to squeeze a workout in.

What if it could be a bit of fun though?

After all, there are lots of benefits to making sure we’re fit and healthy.

‘Sedentary lifestyles are directly linked to a number of health conditions, including obesity, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, increased risk of cancer, joint or bone issues like arthritics or osteoporosis as well as increased feelings of low mood,Centre. ‘Increasing activity levels through any type of exercise, from swimming to roller skating or even playing table tennis, can help you hit your recommended weekly exercise target and reduce the associated risks directly linked to an inactive lifestyle.’
