We talk about the low-effort movements that can have an outsized impact: from stacking healthy habits, like adding calf lifts to your nightly tooth brushing routine, to breaking up sedentary activities, like stretching while you watch TV.

You’ve likely heard that taking 10,000 steps a day is good for your health. In fact, that’s true for a whole host of “zone zero” activities – exercises you can do without breaking a sweat. From stacking healthy habits, like adding calf lifts to your nightly tooth brushing routine, to breaking up sedentary activities, like stretching while you watch TV: we talk about the low-effort movements that can have an outsized impact. How do you integrate what some physical therapists call “movement snacks” into your daily routine? Do you have questions, or advice, about how to stay active?
