It might mean running for miles every morning. If none of those definitions of exercise seem to quite fit your lifestyle, maybe you'll like this definition better. That is something we all do every day. How much movement, or exercise, you get each day is easy to measure. This can be done with the use of a simple tool called a pedometer.
Pedometers are inexpensive and can be bought at any sporting goods store.
They are easy to set and easy to use. Pedometers measure both time and distance, so you'll know how far you went and the amount of time you spent exercising. Just follow the directions for setting up your pedometer and you'll be ready to measure how much you move, or exercise, each day. Once you have that number, then you'll know how far you need to go each day, in distance, to equal the 30-minute goal. Increasing the amount of movement you get each day isn't hard, but it does take effort.
