ll exercises sound great for the benefits they extend. Also, it is understandable that committing to an exercise program can be overwhelming. But recent studies have proved that even moderate movements when done for as little as 30 minutes a day, can improve your health considerably and reduce the chances of heart and life-threatening diseases. 

By making just a few changes in your daily routine you can get the body moving and be well on your way to be fit. Here are my top ten ways to add movement to your daily routine:

1.  Take the Stairs : skip the lift or escalator and take the stairs once a day. If you have stairs at the office or at home, make it fun: put a sign-up sheet at the bottom of the stairs for everyone to sign when choosing to take the stairs 

2.  Skip the parking space : instead of circling the car park looking for that perfect space, park at the far end or a mile away and walk. A few extra steps add up. 

3.  Walk or cycle instead of drive : Going about in a car does not include any physical exercise; instead of putting the key in the ignition, put on your walking shoes or hop on you bicycle. 

4.  Walk to the shops : now that shopping can be a matter of clicking a mouse or dialing a phone, make an effort and go to the shops. Browse in a bookshop or walk a few extra laps around the shopping center. To check the number of calories burned during various physical activities, click here.
