It's important to find something that is enjoyable and achievable for you.

Pick 'n' mix from the list below:

Walking – there are lots of ways to include more walking in your everyday life.

• Instead of meeting friends or family for a coffee why not suggest a walk or a trip to the shops?
• Avoid the traffic and leave the car at home for small trips.
• Get off the bus or train one or two stops earlier and walk the rest of the way.
• Park your car in the furthest spot in the car park.
• Instead of sitting at your desk in your lunch break go out and take a walk.
• Offer to take a friend's dog for a walk.
• Use the stairs instead of taking the lift.

Dancing – is becoming a more popular way to keep active and can be a great way to meet people. Why not try salsa, ceroc, belly dancing, Bhangra or even Bollywood dancing?

Swimming – is a great way to relax but if you want more fun water aerobics might just be up your street.

Household jobs –

• Get fit while sprucing up your garden.
• Boogie while you're hoovering.
• Doing DIY leads to health as well as home improvement.

Golf – walking briskly between 18 holes can really notch up some physical activity minutes and help you forget everyday stresses.

Join in with the kids – enjoy some fun with the children and join in with their activities, such as kicking a ball around the park – or what about rollerblading?

Bowling – walking the green or knocking down pins.

Cycling – a great way to explore the countryside.
