You must select one or more choices to undertake the ‘Be active every day’ goal
- Walk briskly for at least 30 minutes on most, if not all, days of the week (you can do 3 x 10 minute walks, if it’s easier)
- Join the Heart Foundation Walking program and walk with them at least once a week
- Join a Heart Foundation Heartmoves class - a gentle physical activity program suitable for anyone who hasn’t done exercise in a while
- Work out at your gym three times a week
- Do an organised class such as yoga, pilates, dance or Zumba class at least once a week
- Commit to taking the stairs rather than the escalators when shopping, going to the movies or catching a train
- Be more active in the workplace – walk to the printer, stand up rather than sit when answering the phone, and aim for one ‘walking’ meeting a week, e.g. a meeting with a staff member
- Work up to swimming 1km at your local pool, beach or river at least twice a week
- Leave the car at home one day a week and walk or catch public transport instead
- Get off the bus, train or tram one or two stops earlier and walk the extra distance
- Cycle along your favourite bike path twice a week
- Join your work colleagues for a lunchtime walk, swim or ball game once a week
