Prepping for Walk Kansas!

vacuumSpring will come, at least according to the calendar! And with that, it’s time for Walk Kansas. Here are some creative ways to get active now.

  • Speed clean your house. Do leg lunges while vacuuming.
  • Walk laps inside your house when its icy outside. Don’t ignore those stairs to get more steps in and get your heart pumping.
  • Grab a couple cans of beans to do arm curls. Add weight by using a couple jugs of water.
  • During online meetings or phone calls, stand up or walk around to keep moving.

Get creative and get ready for Walk Kansas!
