Exercise

There are everyday activities you can do to promote your physical health and boost your mood. Taking the stairs every day in the parking garage and in the hospital is a great place to start. Many smartphones have pedometer apps such as the Pacer app which allows BMI, weight, and blood pressure monitoring as well. You can purchase a FitBit and challenge yourself to 10,000 steps per day (equals ~ 5 miles). Doctors are competitive! A great way to motivate overnight teams can be team challenges: which team can fit in a mini-workout or which can climb the most stairs, walk the furthest?
