You Don’T Need To Climb A Mountain Or Run A Marathon To Be Fit

*  Start slowly. Build gradually.

*  Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise 5 or more days per week.

*  You receive health benefits even if you exercise at least 10 minutes at a time.

*  You can get to the peak of Mt. Rainier (14,410 feet) without leaving your home! Climb 24,703 stairs (about 68 stairs a day for one year).

Dos

*  Plan when, where, and how you will be physically active.

*  Use a calendar, planner, or smartphone app to track your physical activities.

Don’ts

*  Don’t overdo it. “No pain, no gain,” is not true.

*  Don’t put off physical activity because you are too busy.
