I love working on my trampoline but can only seem to do it 3 times a week.  Once I get on I have to be careful to not over do it, but I love the child-like play of jumping on the trampoline even if I'm doing a routine workout.  My goal is by the end of the year to do 20-30 minutes at least 4X/wk.  If you hate exercise as much as I do...I say talk w/your provider about ...

I will stop hitting the snooze alarm and actually walk the dog every morning at 5 am

Vow to increase my step count by 10% over my current average

Added by Travis Blog Commitment to Physical Activity 09/25/2018

With cooler weather approaching, I'm looking forward to longer walks.  I have slacked off a bit this summer due to the heat and humidity.  I want to stay healthy for my family and to inspire others in my workplace to do the same.

I usually step my 10,000 steps, but my goal is to increase it daily.

I am concerned with too much sitting. That was not a risk factor in the survey. Hmmm... I want to get some steps in every hour at work by setting an alarm.

@katpash You've got this! It's hard at first finding a good spot scheduling -wise but give it some time. I truly disliked waking up and working out right away at first, but once I got into the rhythm of it, it really made my days a lot better.

Great work Jaymee! It definitely gets trickier to find the time for working out, working, and taking care and spending time with our families. I recently had to switch up my schedule and have been struggling to get my workout back in a spot that works for me. Good luck and great work!
