With shorter days and longer nights, winter can make it feel like there are less opportunities to be physically active, and it can be tempting to just stay in and watch TV instead.

However, it’s good to know that getting active doesn’t need to be about doing traditional exercise like running or cycling outside. It can mean doing things that fit into your daily routine, as and when you can. This includes things you can do at home, such as cleaning, playing with your children or even lifting a can of beans whilst the kettle boils! Building activity into your regular routine is one of the best ways to start to build a new habit 💪
