If you\u2019re anything like us, glancing at your Apple Watch or fitness band to check the time seems like a personal attack. The step tracker stares at you and almost seems to take a deep-dive into your soul. Okay…that might be a bit dramatic, but getting in the recommended 10k steps a day is not always an easy task. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While we don\u2019t expect you to run a marathon within your home, there are ways to make sure you meet your step goal and stay fit <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s a few tips for that 10k…it\u2019s all about putting one foot in front of the other! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sitting at your desk continuously is detrimental to not only your body but also your mind! Set hourly reminders to get up and take a quick walk. A 1000 steps take about 10 minutes to complete so use this tiny break to refresh your mind by listening to some music while you walk the walk! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Incorporating exercises like skipping, jumping jacks, hopping, and step ups will ensure that you get a few extra steps into your daily routine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Who doesn\u2019t love a furry companion? While pets are amazing in a lot of ways, encouraging exercise is what they do best! Restless combined with little to no bladder control is going to force you into getting up and going for a walk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s simple: the more water you drink, the more often you have to get up to pee. Help yourself get a good body and flawless skin while taking bathroom breaks! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Take your conference calls and brief meetings on the go! If you take calls frequently, this is a wonderful way of making sure you reach your step goal. Plus, you\u2019ll never get bored!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Go ahead and get a friend to join you on your mini-adventure! Set mini-goals for each other and indulge in a little healthy competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
