The Single Best Thing You Can Do for Your Health - The Atlantic
This went around Twitter a few days ago, and deserves a link. I’ll sum it up simply, though the video is short, cute, and worth watching: “Can you limit your sitting and sleeping to just 23 1/2 hours a day? 30 minutes of walking makes a huge difference in your quality of life.”
I got a Fitbit a few months ago, and simply love it. Having a step count at the end of my day that says, “Yeah, you walked a bunch!”, or, “Well, maybe not today, but tomorrow” gives me a tiny but valuable bit of information about my daily activity levels that I’m constantly evaluating to stay healthy.
