Incorporating physical exercise into your daily routine is an important part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. It can help you maintain a healthy weight, reduce your risk of chronic diseases, and improve your mood and mental health. By doing short bouts of physical activity daily to reach 150 minutes/week, you can meet the guidelines and improve your fitness and energy. This SMART goal is designed to help you achieve that. By tracking your daily and weekly activity with a fitness app, doing 10 minutes of walking between classes or 5 minutes of push-ups during breaks, starting today, and keeping it up for six weeks, you can make physical activity a part of your daily routine.
Example:
S: Do short bouts of physical activity daily to reach 150 minutes/week.
