Here's some National Resources:
  • Start your day off with movement
  • 5 Stretches to "Un-Desk" your body
    • on-line classes may cause you to sit more, make sure to stretch & move throughout the day.
  • Movement Matters! The ACSM physical activity guidelines suggest that adults complete at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75-minutes of vigorous activity weekly. Whether it be a 5-minute walk at multiple points throughout the day, a 15-minute bike ride, or a 30-minute workout – prioritize movement, it adds up! 
  • View the American Council on Exercise’s “No Equipment” library of exercises. There are over 100 exercises to choose from including both strength and flexibility movements.  
  • Planet Fitness is streaming free “home work-ins" on their YouTube Channel as a part of their United We Move initiative. 
  • Get outside: bike, walk, run, hike, or kick a soccer ball - make sure to hydrate and wear sunscreen
