Walk Instead of Drive
Whenever possible, swap a short drive for a walk. This is an effective way to burn extra calories, save money on gas, and lower your carbon footprint. If you have several errands close by, try walking between them instead of driving from parking lot to parking lot.
Take the Stairs
You can boost your daily activity simply by choosing the more challenging path. When you are at work, the mall, or a transit station, skip the elevator or escalator and take the stairs. It might be tough at first, especially if you have a few flights to climb, but your legs will thank you as your endurance improves.
