    I don’t know if it’s at all possible for you and depends on where you live and work, but I try to integrate “little sports” in my daily life. I try to cycle and walk to places as much as possible, instead of bus or tram. Try to use staircases instead of elevators. Etc. It can be small things, but easier to keep up than a real sporty regime.

      Yeah, that’s a good thing!
      By bike I’m much faster at the warehouse with by test station and during summer I do that.
      Only in winter and with rain, I use the car.

      And you’re right, that already seems to make a difference.

      Regarding your hint with the stairs:
      Doing that already.
      In hotels I’m using the stairs to train myself a bit and at home in only in the first floor (well, 1,5 because if the entrance stairs to the house)

      It sounds childish, but since if got a SmartWatch, it motivates me, that I can see the daily/weekly statistics of how many stairs I took.
      Gamification really seems to work ;⁠-⁠)

        If gamification works for you, maybe give walkscape.app a chance. Looks cool, but my phone was too crappy

          That’s nice of you, but walking isn’t a problem
          I’m often doing 18000 steps and more at work
          It’s more about doing real training exercises over a longer period of time
