Have you been sitting at a desk all day but somehow you are still tired?
Maybe you had more energy when you were doing regular exercise but you fell out of the routine? Don’t beat yourself up over it. You’re not alone. Many people struggle to maintain a consistent exercise routine without support.
In fact, did you know that more than 55% of Australian adults don’t meet the Australian Physical Activity Guidelines [1]? This is a worrying statistic because physical inactivity significantly increases the risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, some cancers, weight gain, increased blood pressure and cholesterol[1].
If you are worried that lack of exercise is impacting your health and energy levels, there is a solution! We can help if you want to start a regular exercise routine but you don’t know where to start. Exercise Physiologists at Longevity are experts in behaviour change and we understand that getting started is the hardest part.
Top three tips for starting an exercise routine:
- Start small – This may even be as little as 5 minutes of walking.
- Be consistent – Don’t miss two days in a row.
- Get support – Use your support network and get help from an Exercise Physiologist.
