Weekly “Biggest Loser" Wellness Tips

Enjoy your Weekly “Biggest Loser: Body Composition Competition” Wellness Tip:

Here are some tips to get exercise whenever and wherever you can! Every little bit helps.

• Try cleaning the living room, kitchen, or wash dishes while watching TV instead of sitting on the couch.
• Try to limit your TV watching / stationary video game playing to no more than an hour a day. The less time in front of the TV that you spend, the more time you have to be up and active.
• Don't be afraid to park a little farther away, getting in those extra steps everyday is good for your health!
• Always take the stairs instead of the elevator. If you don't know where the stairs are, ask!
• Take a 20-30 minute walk most days of the week; bring your dog, spouse, and/or your children.
