Another Friday, another week of Active Advent! Maybe try increasing your level this week. Adults can gain up to 1-2kg each Christmas, which often isn’t fully lost. Reducing sedentary time may help people to better manage their weight at this time of the year. @gregbiddle

How healthy are GPs? @gregbiddle+al’s study of >400 GPs showed high levels of burnout, poor psychological wellbeing and musculoskeletal complaints. However, less sitting and more physical activity were associated with better health and wellbeing. ➡️ doi.org/10.3399/BJGPO.2023.0…

Have you been taking part in Active Advent this year? It’s not too late to start now – select your level and each day’s activity. With an average of 6,000 calories consumed on Christmas Day we’re investigating innovative ways to help people maintain healthy habits during advent.
