It’s that time again! The kids back at high school running around the front lawn preparing for their fall sports. Just love seeing them struggle through that third lap🤣

The truth of it is I just love, knowing how good they’re gonna feel when they’re done with their workout and getting back to a schedule. It is empowering. Wishing all our students a great year ahead. 💪💪

Sitting for hours at a time doesn’t just affect your energy, it can seriously disrupt blood sugar control.

A recent study reveals that interrupting prolonged sitting with short bursts of movement can significantly improve glycemic control.

In the study, participants who performed 3 minutes of walking or 10 bodyweight squats every 45 minutes had better blood sugar regulation compared to those who stayed seated or even those who took a single 30-minute walk.

These frequent, targeted bursts of activity were shown to activate key muscle groups like the quadriceps and glutes, leading to better glucose management throughout the day.

This is proof that you don’t need to spend hours in the gym to support your metabolic health.
