    1. My most favorite activity that prompted movement is either bicycling or running! Either way, being in motion and getting the opportunity to see the world around me while getting/staying fit and keeping myself in good health! Win win!

      1. Love to hear this! I'm glad that you have found exercise that you love! -Lauren (team member)

    2. Walking, because it doesn’t take any special equipment and on a nice day you can get the fresh air you need.

      1. Many health experts consider walking to be among the most beneficial activities, especially for individuals dealing with chronic conditions like heart failure. It not only promotes physical well-being but also offers the added advantage of spending time outdoors, which can contribute to a sense of calm and ease for the mind. Your insight is spot on!
