Post-Meal Walking Habit
A post-meal walking habit uses ten to twenty easy minutes after eating to smooth glucose and digestion—best with a fixed cue like clearing the table.
A post-meal walking habit is ten to twenty minutes of easy-to-moderate movement after eating to blunt glucose spikes and aid digestion without needing gym clothes. It helps desk workers who stack calories at dinner and sit until bed.
Tie the walk to clearing plates or a calendar cue so it survives busy nights. Intensity stays conversational—this is not interval day.
