The 10 Minute Rule for Exercise
You know you ‘should’ do some movement, but you just don’t ‘feel like’ you have the time, energy or an idea to get started….
Here’s the scoop: Instead of feeling pressured to commit to long
workouts, start with just 10 minutes of exercise, even if it’s just a
walk or the warm up to your usual workout.
Key Benefits:
1. Easier to Start: 10 minutes feels manageable, making it less daunting to get moving.
2. Boosts Mood: Short bursts of activity can elevate your mood and energy levels.
3. Consistency is Key: Regular short workouts can lead to long-term habits and improvements in strength, flexibility, and overall health.
Remember, it’s all about finding what works for you.
So grab your sneakers and commit to just 10 minutes, if you end up doing more, that’s a bonus.
