Welcome Buddies!
To Devon's biggest Active Workplace challenge!
Your challenge starts on 1st March!
What is BuddyBoost?
BuddyBoost helps you to kickstart healthy habits in a fun, month long challenge with the support of your work buddies.
Why buddies?
Doing the challenge with buddies makes it more fun, and it gives you the support and encouragement to keep you going. People who do our challenges with buddies do an average of 40% more days than those who try to go it alone.
What boost?
Exercise is proven to make you feel good. It helps reduce anxiety and depression, boosts confidence and helps you bond with others. And this happens every time you do it, so just think how great you'll feel after 26 days!
Your Challenge.
The mission, should you choose to accept it (and we definitely think you should), is to do just 26 minutes of exercise for 26 days in the month.
Why 26?
Doing 26 minutes each day means you’ll be meeting the guidelines for the right amount of exercise each week. And because it’s less that half an hour, it’s easy enough to fit into your day.
What activity?
It can be any exercise - walking, cycling, dancing, swimming, dancing or even underwater hockey (yes, we've seen it all!). And it doesn’t matter how far or how fast you go, just that you do your 26 minutes and support your buddies to do theirs.
And don't worry if you miss a couple of days - the challenge will run until the 31st March so you can still get your 26 days in.
