Take the stairs.

Almost everyone can stand to think about ways to improve their overall fitness level and the Gay & Lesbian Medical Association lists fitness among the top ten health issues for LGBT people. Thinking fitness doesn’t always have to mean major life changes or expensive gyms. Make small changes like taking the stairs, choosing a farther parking spot or getting off the subway one stop earlier to get your heart working and help maintain strong bones and muscles.
