Get Moving

Physical activity along with healthy eating is essential to a healthy life. Physical activity helps decrease the risk of obesity and can help control stress by boosting feel-good endorphins.

Keep It Simple

Be Consistent
Work out 30 to 60 minutes 5 to 6 days a week. Working out sporadically will have little or no effect.

Strength Train
The more lean muscle you have, the more calories you will burn, 24 hours a day.

Get Rest
Aim for 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night. Exercise can actually improve one's sleep through its stress busting benefits.

Buddy Up
Workout with a friend or join an online support community to help keep accountability.

Be Nice to Yourself
Set realistic goals and then get to work achieving them. They are achievable as long as one works hard and keeps focused on the goal.
