These are free, easily accessible and great for adding strength work to your walks. Plus, you\u2019ll look like the \u201cfun fit person\u201d at the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the official Australian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines, aim for most days of movement, two or more strength sessions per week and 30 minutes or more of moderate to vigorous cardio most days. These recommendations are linked to reduced risk of chronic disease, improved mental health, better mobility and healthier ageing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start small, start outdoors and start somewhere you enjoy. For example, the Kettering Point to Trial Bay Track is a gentle walk along the shoreline with stunning views of the D\u2019Entrecasteaux Channel and Bruny Island. Alternatively, walk or jogs along Kingston Beach and incorporate some strength exercises using the equipment at Rotary Centennial Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need support, accountability or someone to remind you you can do one more rep, I can help you. I bring all the equipment to you \u2013 whether it\u2019s your home or your favourite park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Find activities you enjoy \u2013 walking, circuits or beach walks\/jogs.<\/li><li>Use body weight or outdoor equipment \u2013 it\u2019s free and surprisingly effective.<\/li><li>Mix scenery with exercise \u2013 beaches, bush tracks, playgrounds or open parks.<\/li><li>Set small goals \u2013 10 minutes a day or three sessions a week and increase as you get fitter and stronger.<\/li><li>Get support \u2013 accountability makes everything easier.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, whether it\u2019s a brisk walk, resistance training, stretching, or finding ways to avoid sitting too much, you\u2019re on your way to a healthier and happier lifestyle.
