Life can be hectic, and finding time for a full workout might feel impossible. That’s why I love movement snacks—short bursts of activity that fit seamlessly into your day. These bite-sized sessions make it easier to stay consistent, even on the busiest days.
Psst… Would you rather listen to these tips? Hit play on our podcast episode now for a more in depth chat on the subject! 👇
What Are Movement Snacks?
Movement snacks are small, intentional activities that take just a few minutes. Think squats while the kettle boils or push-ups against the kitchen counter.
Benefits of Bite-Sized Training
Consistency: It’s easier to stick to small, manageable habits.
Energy Boost: A quick movement break can re-energise you.
Long-Term Progress: Small actions build the foundation for bigger fitness goals.
To stay on track and monitor your progress, I've created a Fitness Habit Tracker specifically for busy women like you.
This tracker will help you:
Build awareness around your habits
Identify patterns
Make adjustments as needed
It's available for download on my website lisadawnbeckwith.com/tracker
Use this tool to stay accountable, celebrate your wins, and prioritise your health and well-being.
How to Incorporate Movement Snacks
Start Simple: Begin with one movement, like squats.
Use Everyday Moments: Fit in exercises during tasks like waiting for the kettle to boil.
Build a Routine: Gradually add more movements as these small habits become second nature.
Examples of Movement Snacks
Squats: While waiting for your coffee.
Push-Ups: On the countertop while cooking.
Dance party: Between Zoom calls.
