By : ilikephone / On : 23/01/2023

Garmin Japan Co., Ltd. (hereafter, Garmin), a pioneer of GPS devices from the United States, is promoting health on April 7th, "World Health Day" as part of the Garmin Health project. Useful content is available on the official website. We asked Dr. Naomi Kondo, the chief professor of the Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University, to introduce the 3 health rules that you can do without working too hard.

In recent years, as new lifestyles such as home work and online drinking parties have become established due to the corona crisis, more and more people are more interested in their own bodies and health than ever before. On the other hand, many people say that they do not know where to start and that it is difficult to continue. In this content, we explain in an easy-to-understand manner three points that anyone can easily start.

Garmin supports the realization of a wellness life for people by developing services and information useful for daily health management.

We can do this! 3 health rules that don't work too hard

Three articles for lifestyle improvement that can be done without difficulty. First of all, it is important to "measure" yourself.

By measuring your daily steps, sleep, stress, weight, and body composition, you can "visualize" your life and see yourself objectively.

The next thing is to make friends who can compliment each other. Having someone with whom you can share and receive feedback, and having someone who understands, is a great source of strength for yourself, and also leads to motivation to continue.

And finally, "declare your goals to your surroundings". Declaring your goals to others creates a sense of responsibility within yourself, and a feeling of embarrassment if you can't complete them, which has the effect of helping you achieve your goals. Declared goals should be small goals that can be achieved with a little effort.

By measuring and understanding your physical condition and behavior, you will be able to control your habits and behavior, which will lead to self-confidence.
