There is a big gap between doing nothing and running 5miles or going hard in a gym. You don't need to go all out to see the benifits of exercise. For a start simply walking more will help a lot. That is something relatively easy to do. Something that could almost be a passive thing with better designed cities. If they were made more walkable rather than requiring a car to do anything then people would naturally walk far more then they currently do.
