OK, let’s wrap up our fitness sub-chapter with a quick summary of how to construct an environment for lifelong healthy fitness levels. 

As a quick reminder, the idea here is to make movement an inevitable part life. If you manage that, healthy fitness levels will happen automatically for the rest of your days. 

The checklist

Here are three key steps to automatic lifelong fitness: 

1. Build easy fitness habits. 
   • There are countless opportunities for free movement in our daily lives. 
   • Most of these are very easy and can readily be turned into lasting habits. 
2. Create a fit home. 
   • The location of your home is a key fitness consideration.
   • There are also many things in and around the house that can be modified to encourage movement and discourage stagnation. 
3. Make movement desirable. 
   • One of the main motivations for getting fit is to build a body that makes movement fun. 
   • Use the previous two tips to reach this tipping point and then capitalize on sports and socializing to take it to the next level. 

So, there you have it. Fitness should not be something tedious we force ourselves through day after day. It should be an automatic and often enjoyable part of life 🙂
