Common Sense Exercise & Movement Guidelines

1. Do something you enjoy - Don't always expect to enjoy it.

2. See it as an investment in YOU, your health & pain levels - Do it for YOU not because you are told to.

3. Exercise is NOT just the gym, try to be active in lots of ways. Sport, hobbies or walk rather than take the escalator for example.

4. See it as quality YOU time away from the phone/work/family.

5. The aim is not always to be fitter but to build confidence in your body and functionality. Fitness measures are a by-product.

6. People who exercise regularly prioritise it, it does not need to be your main priority though.

7. Try to enjoy using your body - remember how good it can be or how it has made you feel previously.
