Health Tip: Don't Forget Aerobic Exercise

Walk instead of driving

(HealthDay News) -- There are plenty of easy ways to work aerobic exercise into your day without visiting the gym.

The American Diabetes Association mentions these suggestions:

• Instead of driving, walk to nearby destinations.
• Get off the bus one stop earlier and walk the rest of the way to your destination.
• Wash your car, rake leaves or do some work in the garden.
• Engage in vigorous play with your kids.
• Walk around at a brisk pace while you're on the phone.
• Park your car at the far end of the store parking lot.
