5 ways to get fitter in your 40s
Here are some tips to get you started
Prioritize health check ups
Regular checkups are key in your 40s. Visit your doctor for annual physicals and recommended screenings like blood pressure, cholesterol, and cancer tests. These help catch problems early when they are easier to treat. Talk openly with your doctor about any concerns and follow their advice on vaccines and lifestyle changes.
Pay attention to your diet
What you eat matters more than ever. Focus on whole foods like fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Avoid too much processed food, sugar, and salt. Eating well helps keep your weight in check, lowers your risk of heart disease and diabetes, and supports your energy and mood.
Stay active
Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week, such as brisk walking, cycling, or swimming. Include strength training twice a week to keep muscles and bones strong. Exercise reduces the risk of many diseases, helps manage stress, and boosts mental health.
Get quality sleep
Sleep is when your body heals and recharges. Most adults need 7 to 9 hours of good sleep. Poor sleep can raise stress hormones and increase risks for high blood pressure and blood sugar problems. Create a relaxing bedtime routine and keep a consistent sleep schedule to improve sleep quality.
Manage Stress
Stress can affect your body and mind, so find ways to relax and recharge. Try meditation, deep breathing, yoga, or simply spending time in nature. Don’t hesitate to seek support from friends, family, or professionals if stress feels overwhelming. Managing stress well improves your overall health and quality of life.
