Am I Doing Enough Exercise/Activity?

[taymariekay]

I work in retail, so I'm on my feet most of the day and end up averaging 10,000 steps a day, sometimes more. A lot of the time I come home from work and an additional 30 minute walk doesn't sound appealing, but sometimes it does.

Is my activity from work enough exercise or should I aim to get an additional 30 minutes of brisk walking in?

Thanks!

Tay
