Squat Challenge | Habitica | Easy Physical Activity | Manatain Strength Throughout Life | Strength and old age

Squat Challenge | Habitica | Easy Physical Activity 

Are you a nerd / geek / lazy one / really busy one trying to get in shape?
Are you striving to mantain good sport habits like all of us?
In the past, tasks that couldn't be delayed were costantly making us moving, the trigger for the act of moving was really strong: your own survival.

Going on in time, we less and lees need to make simple strenuous movements while performing complex minimal movements.
Think about it, this has never been so true as it is at present.

I'd add , and righfully so, that moving before, and especially, eating (the so called postprandial) results in lower insulin peaks and faster glucose disposal.

It's a well known fact that amount and amplitude of insulin peaks - in addition to your basal and postprandial glucose levels - are tightly related to inflammation in the body, mortality rate and pace of aging.

It can be as simple as taking a 30 minutes walk while eating or immediately after, but for the scope here, let's strategize willingess towards squats.

Squats is a compound movements which activate the whole lower chain of muscles in addition to your core, entirely.

It's a glucose-avid exercise that builds strength, equilibrium, mental fortitude and to a minor extent your cardiovascular fitness.

Habitica consists of daily tasks on a rpg-like mobile app that rewards you with virtual gold and items upon tasks complition, making yourself self-accountable.

I've successfully chosen Habitica as my go-to tasks-list app because I'm able , in doing so, to get the feeling of a progression in the long run, which I might easily lose sight of, when handling instead daily disposable tasks-lists.
