Finding ways to break up sedentary or stationary behaviour throughout the day can help you move more and feel better. Try these five easy ways to get moving during Move UBC:
- Visit UBC Rec on YouTube for a 6-minute guided stretch break. You can also request the UBCV Move U Crew or the UBCO Move U Crew to lead a free, 5-10 minute in-person or online movement break during your meeting.
- UBCO: Join the Faculty and Staff Movement Break Challenge brought to you by Move UBC and UBC Okanagan HR.
- Try a walking or rolling meeting with a friend or colleague. On the Vancouver campus register for a Wellbeing Walk! On the Okanagan campus, check out campus trails.
- Skip the car and take the bus or bike to class or work.
- Grab a friend and join a free fitness class or event on the Move UBC Calendar
