We are well past the quarantines and lockdowns that were present during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
And while things are finally beginning to open back up and we’re slowly returning to a level of pre-pandemic ‘normalcy’, it doesn’t mean we didn’t pick up on a few bad habits during the pandemic…
Especially some bad habits related to your overall physical fitness and health! (It’s okay, you can admit it.)
In fact, studies have found that people’s overall physical activity PLUMMETED during the pandemic, which led to many people gaining weight and becoming used to ‘sedentary’ lifestyle habits that to this day are hard to break.
But thanks to some new research, getting back to your pre-COVID ‘self’ doesn’t require intense personal training, or grueling fitness programs that leave you sore and unmotivated.
In fact, dusting off that COVID-19 ‘inactivity’ is as simple as executing this simple, 5-minute trick.
According to a new research study from King’s College in London, getting up and moving around for just FIVE MINUTES every hour can help you shake off your pandemic inactivity.
The study found that most people spent less time during light activities, and ‘moved’ less in general, during the pandemic which resulted in an average of 25 minutes LESS movement each day.

25 minutes of ‘non-movement’ may not seem like a lot, but add that up over time and the result is hundreds of hours of inactivity that can contribute to all kinds of health issues.
The solution?
Five minutes of movement.
This could be as simple as taking a quick stroll around the block, or getting up from your desk or couch and doing some simple stretches.
In other words, shaking off those bad, physical habits from COVID-19 doesn’t require a gym membership. Just making sure you move frequently and often will help your body get back on track.
And the more you move, the more motivated you’ll be to exercise more… which is a blueprint for good, overall health.
