Let’s Make Our Day Harder

By Dr. Mike Evans

Why do I love it so much? Because a good majority of people I see in the clinic come in with aches and pains, not necessarily because of their sport, but because of their lack of it.

Our bodies were not meant for so little movement that our sedentary lifestyles offer. One thing I do to make myself to work a little harder is to use a heavy steel framed bike when I bike to work!

Starting with something that you already do on a daily basis, like a regular commute, can help integrate new, healthy habits into your lifestyle. How can you incorporate more movement into your daily routine?
