Key Takeaways

  • Move every 30-60 minutes for at least 1-3 minutes to improve blood sugar control and overall health.
  • Combine walking and squatting throughout the day to activate large muscles and improve circulation.
  • Walking stimulates the soleus muscle, which helps pump blood back to the heart and prevents pooling in the legs.
  • Aim for at least 8,700 steps daily to significantly reduce mortality risk compared to lower step counts.

Bottom Line

Incorporate frequent movement breaks throughout your day, combining walking and squatting, to improve blood sugar control, circulation, and long-term health.
