Happy Summer!
How will you keep moving this season?
It is one of those times of the year where schedule shifts and extreme weather can curtail the best intentions to keep moving.
Every year I find myself saying, “I will do that over the summer when I have more time“. As summer ends, I am amazed how I did not have more time. I have heard this from many of you as well, even from those of you with the summer off!
A bit of structure can go a long way. So now is a great time to set some summer exercise goals.
Keep it simple, because after all, it is summer. Simple goals are powerful when well designed. Give those goals even more power by putting them in writing and share them with someone. Goals that are written and shared are much, much more likely to be met!
The first day of Summer is also a great time to review the hot weather exercise guidelines to keep moving safely as the temperature rises.
Wishing you a wonderfully active summer!
Keep Moving, Be Well,
Janet
