- Start your day with breakfast.
Breakfast fills your "empty tank" to get you going after a long night without food. You should eat a balanced meal for breakfast to include one piece of fruit, some cereal or bread and a small amount of milk or yoghurt.
- Get Moving!
Walk, bike or jog to see friends. Take a 10-minute activity break every hour while you read, do homework or watch TV.
- Snack smart.
Smart snacks are a great way to refuel. Choose snacks from different food groups – a glass of low-fat milk and an apple for instance.
- Work up a sweat.
Vigorous work-outs help your heart, give you more energy and help you look and feel good. Start with a warm-up that stretches your muscles. Then cool-down with more stretching and deep breathing.
