A Movement for MOVEMENT Monday Check-In: If you haven't committed to 20 minutes of intentional movement per day, keep reading—Imagine lighting up a cigarette every morning, every afternoon, and every evening. You know it’s harming your body, but it’s just part of your routine.
Now, swap that cigarette for hours of sitting.
Shocking?? It should be. Prolonged sitting is just as dangerous as smoking. It increases your risk of heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and even early death. Just like smoking, it slowly harms your body—weakening your heart, slowing circulation, and increasing inflammation.
🔥 But just like smoking, you can quit! 🔥
✅ Stand up every 30-60 minutes—just 5 minutes of movement makes a difference.
✅ Swap sitting for small activities—march in place, stretch, take the stairs.
✅ Make movement a habit, not an afterthought.
🚭 Sitting is the new smoking. Are you ready to break the habit? Your health depends on it.
ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE STARTING A NEW EXERCISE ROUTINE.
