365DAYS CAMPAIGN AGAINST NON COMMUNICABLE DISEASES

 
DAY 144 of 365

ENGAGING IN REGULAR EXERCISE 

Report has shown that by engaging in regular exercise reduce the risk of Cardiovascular Disease. Federal guidelines recommended 30 minutes of moderate intensity exercise five times a week.

Engage in  purposeful exercises like walking for five minutes every 2hours, do a set of one or two push ups either on the floor or against the kitchen counter. Perform up to 10 repetition of stand-and-sit exercise where you rise from a chair without using your arms and then sit down again. Use the stairs instead of the lift/ elevator.

Another way to reduce daily movement is to wear an activity track which counts the number of steps you take daily.About 10,000 steps per day is a standard target. It's an easy number to remember and something that many active people can reach during their day.
