Exercise as much as possible every day! Take advantage of everyday activities for a more active lifestyle by:

- going for a walk, riding a bike, enjoying dancing or playing ball,
- including an active break in your work day,
- going to work and run errands on foot, by bike, get off the bus a few stops before your destination, walk part of the way, etc.,
- enjoying in nature that offers us plenty of opportunities to incorporate physical activity into everyday life (walking, cycling, swimming…).
