How To Create An Exercise Habit

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Gyms have been closed for months—we’ve had no access to training equipment, go-to yoga studios or favourite spin classes. But now, with fitness facilities reopening across the country, we have an opportunity. We can get back into our fitness regimens—or start completely new ones. Here, Stephen Salzmann, Medcan director of fitness, and fitness manager Anna Topali joined Eat Move Think executive producer Christopher Shulgan for a Medcan webinar about turning exercise into a habit that’s a seamless part of your daily lifestyle. Salzmann and Topali’s expert tips were so great, we decided to turn that chat into this week’s episode.</span></p> <p><strong>LINKS</strong></p> <ul> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Watch the full Medcan webinar on creating an exercise habit</span> <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3vccnV0ivU"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">here</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Read Salzmann’s recent article on dumbbell workouts</span> <a href= "https://medcan.com/medcan-insights/health-tips-advice/eight-new-dumbbell-exercises/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">here</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;"><br /></span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Find out more about Medcan’s fitness program, and book a session with a personal trainer</span> <a href= "https://medcan.com/our-services/live-well-programs/fitness/"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> here</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">You can also check out this</span> <a href= "https://globalnews.ca/news/8025131/covid-ontario-gyms-changing-the-way-they-operate-post-lockdown/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Global News article</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">about how Canadian gyms are preparing to reopen during the pandemic, and this</span> <a href= "https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/
