In order to manage Type 2 Diabetes and High Blood Pressure, you need to get active!
- Instead of the constant chronic cardio & over-training, just be active in whatever you are doing!
- Natural walking is the best! Take your 15-minute morning and afternoon breaks at work and walk at your natural pace for those 15 minutes. At home after dinner, take another 15 minute walk with the dog, with a spouse, or by yourself.
- If you keep this easy active routine up, before you know it, you'll be picking up your natural walking pace!
- In addition to walking, center your daily routines around activity, such as doing calf raises while brushing your teeth, parking farther from the entrance to add more steps, or doing gentle stretching or calisthenics while watching TV.
- On weekends, focus on active play, such as hiking, or any of your favorite sports and/or activities. Go old school with games like dodge ball or duck-duck-goose!
