It's much better to move your body for 20 minutes every day than for two hours once a week
In this episode of Sobertown Podcast, Kevin Beaufrand takes us on a journey through the first 'M' in the KNOWMERGE system: Movement. Kevin passionately explains how regular physical activity can be a game-changer in your journey to health and sobriety. He dives into key concepts like consistency, progressive overload, frequency, intensity, and tracking your progress. These elements are essential for building a sustainable fitness routine that supports your overall well-being.
Balancing workout intensity is crucial; it should challenge you but also be sustainable. Listening to your body and adjusting as needed is key. Finally, we’ll talk about the importance of tracking your progress to ensure you're moving forward effectively. Kevin's enthusiasm is contagious as he breaks down the significance of each component. He emphasises that consistency is about making sure you do the thing regularly without negotiating with yourself.
It's much better to move your body for 20 minutes every day than for two hours once a week. Frequency follows closely behind, encouraging daily movement to reinforce new habits. Intensity helps determine how often you can train, balancing high and low-intensity activities. Progressive overload ensures that you're always improving, whether by increasing weight, reps, or time under tension. And finally, tracking your progress helps you stay on course and see your growth.
Kevin also highlights that everyone's journey is different, influenced by age, gender, goals, and physical condition. Whether you're into walking, running, martial arts, or any other activity, the key is to find what you enjoy and stick with it. He encourages listeners to join the Soberflex community for support and accountability. Ready to take control of your fitness journey and support your sobriety?
