19: Q&A Friday: Fitting Exercise into an Overbooked Schedule

“What do you recommend for a work situation where you don’t move all day and are feeling unhealthy? I start work two hours early in order to complete charts, I don’t get a lunch break and I often stay late to finish my work load. My colleagues do the same but seem totally fine with it. I’m too exhausted on either side of the day to go to the gym, I know it’s not healthy but haven’t figured out a solution.”

 

You know how important physical movement is as it’s connected to our physical health as well as our mental health. But have you figured out how to incorporate it into your busy schedule? We’re here to help! Join Gabriella and Jill as they sit down to answer one of your questions this week on Q&A Friday.
