Find local exercise activities

Always talk to your doctor before starting any new exercise activity or programme. For help in finding or starting a local program, ask them to refer you to a physiotherapist, an occupational therapist, an exercise specialist or a rehabilitation specialist.

Look for further information about local exercise activities by:

  • Searching the Internet
  • Visiting local libraries, health centres, and community centres
  • Reading local newspapers and magazines

Start an exercise program to suit you

  • Choose a fun activity that you will enjoy
  • Start slowly. Begin with light exercise like walking, swimming, cycling, or Pilates
  • Find a group activity with people of a similar age group, or similar level of fitness
  • Go at your own pace. Slowly increase the amount and difficulty of exercise
  • Stop and rest if you feel sore, stiff or out of breath
  • If 30 minutes of activity is too hard, split it up into shorter 5 to 10 minute sessions
