Before you start
If you have any health problems, are recovering from an injury, or are unsure whether the exercises are suitable for you, get advice from your GP before starting.
Stop exercising and seek medical advice if any movement causes pain or discomfort.
Why physical activity matters
Being active can support both physical and mental health. Even small amounts of movement can help improve mood, energy, sleep and general wellbeing.
You do not need to join a gym or buy equipment to get started. The HSE videos are designed to help people move more at home, at their own pace.
