A healthier lifestyle need not begin with a trip to the gym, merely walking more has been shown to generate significant health outcomes. So why not pick up a pedometer and aim to increase the steps you are taking each day? Simple tips include getting off the bus a stop earlier, parking your car in a space further away from your destination, and taking the stairs as opposed to lifts or escalators.

Beginning walking or exercising may be easier with a friend. Research has shown that those becoming active as a group have an increased chance of maintaining behaviour change for extended periods. Group exercise classes can be a fantastic way of meeting new people, having fun, and an easy way to burn calories.
