R U OK?

Feeling a bit down or stressed lately? Hitting the gym or going for a jog with some close friends can be a great way to lift your spirits and check in on your overall wellbeing. The simple act of moving your body and getting your heart rate up releases endorphins that can instantly boost your mood, while the social interaction and support from companions provides an added layer of mental and emotional benefits. Exercising with friends allows you to motivate each other, hold each other accountable, and have a bit of fun in the process - cracking jokes, reminiscing, or simply enjoying each other's company as you work up a sweat together. Plus, being active with people you trust creates a sense of community and belonging that can be incredibly uplifting, especially if you're going through a tough time. So the next time you're feeling "not quite right," don't hesitate to reach out to your workout buddies. They'll be there to listen, encourage you, and make sure you get that much-needed dose of physical activity to recenter and recharge. You may be surprised by just how refreshed and reinvigorated you feel afterwards.

More tips to increase your step count during STEPtember.

It's always a good idea to do some stretching before heading out for your walk, as it can help reduce the risk of injury. By loosening up your muscles and increasing blood flow, stretching helps prepare your body for physical activity and can make your walk more enjoyable. Focus on stretching the major muscle groups in your calves, hips, and lower back to improve flexibility and range of motion. Hold each stretch for about 30 seconds without bouncing, and remember to breathe deeply throughout. Not only will incorporating a pre-walk stretching routine help prevent strains and muscle soreness, but it can also improve your overall performance and endurance during your stroll. So take a few minutes to limber up before hitting the pavement – your body will thank you later!

Easy tips to increase your step count and achieve 10,000 steps a day.

To incorporate more walking into your daily routine, start by setting achievable goals, like a 10-minute walk during lunch or a brief stroll after dinner. Utilise walking apps or step counters to track your progress, which can motivate you to reach daily targets. Choose walking-friendly routes, such as parks or safe neighborhoods, and consider inviting a friend for companionship, which makes it more enjoyable. Lastly, look for opportunities to walk instead of drive, like parking further away or taking the stairs instead of the lift.
