physicalactivity

Start small and build up gradually. Take advantage of every opportunity to be active. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle by getting 20 to 25 minutes of exercise a day can reduce your risk of diabetes complications. Due to injuries and immobility, some patients can't do physical activities. Therefore, talk to your doctor about what physical activities are right for you and your health.

We all have an activity we don’t like doing. Maybe pilates isn’t your thing or you’d rather do anything else but put away laundry (yes, that can be a form of physical activity!). Or perhaps if you get snow where you live you would rather play in the snow than shovel the driveway. It’s OK to have physical activities you don’t like.
