It's Time To Get Moving!
If you do just that, it could win you a Fitbit!
Every day this week on The Big Breakfast Blaa, we’re teaming up with the Irish Heart Foundation for the Escape Your Chair challenge!
This September, for Heart Month, the Irish Heart Foundation is calling on you to Escape Your Chair. Take on the Escape Your Chair challenge throughout the month by getting up and moving for a minute each hour during the day.
Sitting for long periods of time can increase your risk of heart disease and stroke. New Irish Heart Foundation research has shown that the average person who is working from home because of the Coronavirus pandemic is spending more than two and a half hours extra EACH DAY sitting down.
Visit www.EscapeYourChair.ie to take part in the challenge, with exercises to do each day, and helpful advice from campaign ambassador Karl Henry.
How To Win
The Irish Heart Foundation’s goal is to help improve your cardiovascular health and this week, in conjunction with Fitbit, Ollie and Mary will do just that by encouraging you to get on your feet.
Each day on The Big Breakfast Blaa, we'll play an upbeat track and encourage you to get up and dance to it. We’ll do the same and you have to guess how many steps Ollie and Mary got in during the song - the winner with the closest guess each day wins a Fitbit!
