Autoimmune and Introducing Exercise
If you're looking to introduce physical fitness into your life with an autoimmune condition, there are a few tips you should keep in mind:
Start where you are! Don't push yourself too hard, too fast.
Make small changes. Gradually increase the amount of exercise you do each day.
Determine individualized goals. What do you want to achieve through exercise?
Create a routine. Make exercise a consistent part of your daily routine.
Do not give up if you do not see immediate results.
Health takes time! Health improvements take time.
Here are some ideas to get moving:
Bike instead of drive
Schedule post-dinner walks
Dance around while doing housework
Take on more active hobbies
Always take the stairs
Park farther away in parking lots
How do you schedule movement into your day?
Do you ensure you do 10,000 steps a day?
Do you walk for a minimum of ten minutes a day?
Remember, it's important to start small and gradually increase your activity level. By doing so, you can improve your health and enjoy the benefits of exercise.
I hope you have enjoyed this information. Until next time!
