This is important information. Thank you Hui.

I take exercise/movement snacks to tend to my plants, fill my bottle of water or make a phone call while pacing back and forth or multitasking in the kitchen until the call is done.

Great article! Love the “micro-exertion” exercise snacks! The stair sprints are a great way to get short bursts of exercise. I try sprints or quickly walking skipping every other stair. I also do lunges in the hallways when they are empty. So many options to stay active. Thanks for sharing!!

thanks for posting. I work from home so 100% can have a day with 500 steps! I like exercising but what I'm finding I really like is just turning on a song or two between meetings and dancing!
