Exercise – Enjoyable Activities

Physical exercise is an essential part of a healthy lifestyle. It helps you maintain a healthy weight, reduce your risk of chronic diseases, and improve your mood and mental health. By finding and doing an enjoyable physical activity three times a week, you can boost your health, mood, and motivation. This SMART goal is designed to help you achieve that. By logging and rating your physical activity each time, trying different exercises like dancing, frisbee, or yoga, experimenting for one month, and then choosing one, you can find an enjoyable physical activity that works for you.

Example:

S: Find and do an enjoyable physical activity 3 times/week.
M: Log and rate my physical activity each time.
A: Try different exercises like dancing, frisbee, or yoga.
R: Enjoyable physical activity will boost my health, mood, and motivation.
T: Experiment for one month and then choose one.
