Great Ideas

Some great ideas to fit physical activity in:

• Get off bus 10 minutes before your intended stop and walk.
• Fit a 10 minute walk into your lunch break.
• If you are a stay at home parent, try fitting in a TV fitness program; dance with your children for 10 minutes; go to the park and actively play with your children.
• Take the stairs instead of the elevator or walk up the escalator.
• Take stretch breaks at your desk or while riding on the bus.
• Be active when your children are participating in their lessons or activities.
• Walk or cycle to do your errands.
• Make physical activity a family event.
