What is Make Your Move?
If you are one of the many people across the UK who knows they should get a bit more active, we are talking to you.
We want to help you get moving. Because once you realise that you can move, we know you will want to move more.
This campaign is promoting accessible, physical challenges for everyone. Whatever your personal motivation is, you can take steps (in the comfort of your own home and at low cost) to getting stronger and fitter.
The aim of Make Your Move is to see how easy it is to set a goal and enjoy the process of reaching that personal target. We’re not talking about walking before you can run. We’re talking about taking a couple of steps and seeing how you like it.
Make Your Move has been put together by 麻豆社 Sport’s participation team at .
Please note that this campaign is now over but the resources are still available for anyone who wants to challenge themselves.
What Moves can I Make?
With the help of , we have developed 16 different challenges that are achievable but, more importantly, they are fun and will probably make you smile.
These are divided into 4 different categories of fitness: , , and . It’s up to you to choose which area you would most like to work on, but you can always do more than one challenge.
The idea is to see if you can impress yourself. We want you to pat yourself on the back for trying something new and feel the benefits.
Everyone is different and your level of fitness will be different to the next person who reads this page so the challenges vary in difficulty so that there is something for most people.
