Another Friday, another week of Active Advent! Maybe try increasing your level this week. Adults can gain up to 1-2kg each Christmas, which often isn’t fully lost. Reducing sedentary time may help people to better manage their weight at this time of the year. @gregbiddle

How healthy are GPs? @gregbiddle+al’s study of >400 GPs showed high levels of burnout, poor psychological wellbeing and musculoskeletal complaints. However, less sitting and more physical activity were associated with better health and wellbeing. ➡️ doi.org/10.3399/BJGPO.…

Have you been taking part in Active Advent this year? It’s not too late to start now – select your level and each day’s activity. With an average of 6,000 calories consumed on Christmas Day we’re investigating innovative ways to help people maintain healthy habits during advent.

Our friends at @LboroCLiMB have developed a fabulously festive way of keeping active during December - the Active Advent, It's Day 5 - so why not take inspiration and get leaping! #Advent
