Build exercise into your commute to and/or from work. Run, Cycle, Walk all or some of the journey. Get off the bus a stop early, park further from work, keep change of fresh clothes at work etc. Great for body and mind and saves money too.
What's the best way to commute?

As a personal trainer and keen cyclist I am constantly encouraging people to get fit and active whilst making a journey they usually make most days Monday to Friday. Cycling to and from work is not only a great way to get your exercise done but it also helps you to save money, is good for the environment and helps to to feel energised for the day ahead and unwind after work. The following is a diagram that compares 3 common modes of transport to work: cycling, car or public transport. 
The Evans Cycles infographic compares three different ways to commute to work. Fitness, environmental and financial factors have all contributed to the increasing popularity of fold up bikes and ride to work schemes, as people look for alternative methods to commute.
A big thank you to Max Walsh of Carat Media for providing the above graphic.
So give cycling to and from work a go. Not only will it help to get you fit but it will save you money, help the environment and help you to de-stress.
Keep up the great work,
Matt
