Every month in 2026, I am spotlighting a special movement snack. A movement snack is a small amount of movement done on its own, not as part of a larger exercise routine or other activity. And I am a big fan! The March 2026 Movement Snack Spotlight is… Get down to the floor and back up again!I have several suggestions for a range of current ability… If getting to the floor and back up is easy for you, do it over and over for two minutes. If this is a skill that isn’t easy for you, do a little every day and get better at it over the course of the month. Next to a sturdy chair, lower your knee to the floor and back up a couple times. Repeat on the other side. Use the chair to lower yourself to sitting and to push yourself back up. Use the chair to lower yourself, but walk your hands to your feet to stand up. Place your hands on the floor and lower yourself to sitting, experiment with different ways to get up.
Let me know in the comments of my social media posts what works for you. Make a commitment for a month. You can do this along with the January and February snacks or in place of them. Doing it every day is great, but most days is better than no days. Give it a try! Share with me how it goes and read others’ experiences. Look for posts on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Read the Movement Snack Spotlight article on my website where you will find all the monthly snacks. Now, move!
