Tips and Suggestions

Moving more is one of the best things you can do for your health—but we know it’s not easy to get started! Check out some of our top tips for starting a fitness routine, as well as other ideas from around the web.

• Check in with your doctor. A quick visit with your health care provider can alert you to any health problems or conditions that could put you at risk for an injury during exercise.
• Start slowly. Strive to Thrive is all about taking the little steps to a healthier lifestyle, but going too fast can be risky. Gradually introduce exercise into your daily routine, only increasing the frequency and intensity once you feel ready and safe.
• Make it a habit. Consistency is key. Schedule a little bit of time each day for physical activity until it feels like a regular part of your daily routine.
