Then walk at the slowest setting for 5 minutes. Gentle movement usually gives you energy, it rarely takes it.

Tiredness is real, but there are two kinds: the kind that needs sleep, and the kind that comes from sitting still all day. Gentle walking usually helps the second kind.

Five minutes at the slowest speed. If you still feel worse after, stop and rest.
