Make Physical Activity Part of Your Day

• Walk whenever you can.  Start with a 10-minute walk and gradually increase your time.
• Post a reminder at the elevator to use the stairs.
• Walk with a colleague at work and enjoy the social time together.
• Walk your child to school.
• If you sit all day at work, stretch or bend a few minutes every hour, and get up and walk.
• Commute the active way: cycle or walk part way to work or school.
• Plan to explore trails in Grey-Bruce with your children.  Visit the Bruce Grey Trail Network for trails in your area.
• Play with your kids.
• Do stretching exercises while watching TV
• Try an aquafit or exercise class – you don’t have to make a long-term commitment.
• Plan your activities.  Add a line in your daybook for physical activity.
• Fitness cannot be stored:  Muscles work best when they are exercised.
• Every little bit counts but more often is even better.  Everyone can do it!
