weeks to see how close you are to the recommended levels of exercise.\u00a0 A step counter can be a useful tool (do you get 10,000 steps per day and if not, can you aim for 8000 or 9000?), but you can also log whether you did cardio or strength training, how long the workout lasted and what level of intensity it was (were you panting or just breathing a little more heavily?)\u00a0 Try to be mindful of the times of day when you sit or stand when you could be moving, for example do you need to sit still on a long phone call, or could you perhaps be walking somewhere quiet?<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3dfbe21 elementor-section-boxed
