Want to get active but feel a bit nervous and unsure of where to start?

 

Don’t worry many of us feel exactly the same, but don’t let your fear get in the way of healthy choices. First thing is first – the number one rule is: you don’t have to workout for hours in agony to reap the benefits of exercise, all it takes is a little bit each day to see life long results.

 

Accredited Exercise Physiologist Katie Williams has put together three simple exercise routines to help you get started and keep you moving. Katie worked with the Queensland Government on their Healthier.Happier initiative.

 

Remember: If you feel any discomfort, severe shortness of breath or dizziness during your workout, take a rest or decrease your workout intensity. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice.
