Partners move quickly or in slow motion to show healthy ways to recharge energy.
Sleep and relax without screen time to recharge your energy.
Begin with a fitBoost.
Say: Move so you are next to a spot marker and use body movements to answer the following energy questions:
Did you know that your energy affects your choices? Getting enough sleep at night gives your body time to restore and build up energy. Relaxing throughout the day gives you energy too.
You recharge your energy with fit choices that are “energy makers,” like getting 9 to 12 hours of sleep, relaxing without screen time, and physical activities.
Your energy gets zapped by “energy takers,” like staying up too late and channel surfing.
The number one thing you need to know is getting 9 to 12 hours of sleep each night and relaxing without screen time are fit choices you can make to give your body and brain energy to move and think!
