What are Exercise Snacks?

Written By Meirav Dulberg

Exercise Snacks are those short sharp exercises that you can do anywhere, anytime.

The purpose of exercise snacks is to get you moving more. As we age, we get more sedentary, and this is what makes us feel old. We have to keep moving and keep active. And doing small amounts of movement every day is better than doing one big session once a week. It’s the small things that add up over time.

Some snack ideas are:

  • The plank (my all time favourite exercise snack)

  • Intense breathing with your eyes closed

  • Squats

  • Walking (I like walking the dog)

  • Stretching

  • Push ups

The list really is endless.

How do you do these snacks?

I have an Apple Watch and it buzzes me on the hour every day for 12 hours. It tells I need to move. So I do.

However you don’t need a fancy watch. You can use your phone or kitchen timer to buzz you every hour during that day. That’s the signal to get up and MOVE.

My business and digital strategy background means I approach each project holistically, balancing aesthetics with smart business results. I continue to support clients long after launch with training and advice, which is why many have stayed with me for over a decade. Collaboration is central to my process. I partner with copywriters, graphic designers, photographers and marketing specialists so every site tells the right story and reflects cohesive branding. I also run workshops and provide ongoing training because I believe your website should be easy to use and evolve with your business.
