The situation differs from that of the world today, but the lesson still stands out. Especially in a world where many are still self-quarantining, a healthy lifestyle can be a real concern. Whether or not a person has gained weight during this time or not, it’s always a good idea for a person to invest in their own health. Exercise does more than just help a person lose weight. Regular exercise can reduce the risk of heart disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and even improve mental health and mood. Looking at these facts the question arises: While some people may enjoy a more sedentary lifestyle, how can a person still enjoy the comfort of their couch without becoming a total potato?

There’s no need to drastically change a person’s lifestyle in order to obtain a greater level of health and overall sense of well-being. To be clear, this is not strictly about losing weight but more specifically how to stay somewhat active while waiting for the world to return to a more normal state.
The trick is to incorporate healthier activities alongside activities that you already do and are comfortable with completing. Typically taking the elevator? Maybe try the stairs. Driving to the convenient store on the corner? Maybe walk next time. Enjoy watching shows on streaming services?
