What does moderate intensity mean?

Activities that make you slightly warm and breathe a little harder than normal. You should still be able to talk and exercise at the same time.

• Brisk Walking
• Gardening
• Dancing
• Energetic housework
• Swimming             

Make activity part of your daily life

• Be active as often as possible - even if it is only for 5 minutes
• Go for a walk in your lunchtime.
• Climb the stairs more frequently
• Avoid sitting for long periods
• Increase activity at the weekends or on days off.
• Try to walk or cycle on your daily journeys rather than going by car.
