Get Active 

 
 

Take Action!

Be realistic.
Remember: It’s not all or nothing. Even 10 minutes of activity is better than none! Try walking for 10 minutes a day a few days a week.

Strengthen your muscles.
Try some of these activities a few days a week:

  • Sit-ups
  • Heavy gardening (digging or shoveling)
  • Doing push-ups on the floor or against the wall
  • Lifting small weights (you can even use cans of food as weights)

Find a time that works for you. Try fitting in 10 minutes of activity before work or in the evening after dinner.

Track your progress.
