Make an action plan
for healthy living

Set goals you can keep – Don’t commit to more than you can manage. If your fitness targets are realistic and achievable, you’ll be far more likely to succeed.

Write it down – Set specific and measurable fitness goals. Then write them down and track your progress in a daily journal. Putting your goals in writing will help you stay committed to your fitness routine.

Get a friend to join you – Sharing your goals with friends or colleagues makes fitness fun – and will keep you motivated when you’re tempted to quit!

Vary your daily routine – Break your activities into manageable chunks e.g.:

stretch for 10 minutes in the morning
walk for 20-minutes at lunch
vacuum for 15 minutes after work

Reaching your fitness goals will seem so much easier that way.

Reward yourself when you’ve done well – Treat yourself to something special when you pass an important fitness milestone. That’s the best way stay enthusiastic and positive about your new active lifestyle.

Keep moving – and have fun – Add exercise to whatever you do. Walk everywhere. Take the stairs. Wear ankle weights to do your housework. Put energy into everything you do and you’ll notice the difference in weeks!
