If you work in an office, find any excuse that you can to get up and stretch your legs, even if it\u2019s just a walk to the bathroom. If you\u2019re driving kids around for the day, get out of the car and walk the kids to wherever they\u2019re going. If you\u2019re at school, do a couple laps in your passing time, or stretch in the bathroom. You don\u2019t have to do something extreme to keep your streak, just something small to get those muscles moving, so you can keep them from falling into disuse.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Chris E.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Put on some fabulous music that you love and dance!!
