Goals for this week are therefore to stick to my planned diet, walk 10,000+ steps/day, and start doing my 5BX exercises regularly. There's no squash this week as the gym will be closed on Easter Sunday.

Get a bicycle with a trainer? Go for rides when the weather is nice or get on the trainer in front of the TV when it's not. Works for an old guy like me - low intensity, cheap and burns through calories. Squash was tough on the joints..
I have a bike but never use it due to the combination of hilly terrain and busy roads. And the cycling action can aggravate an old knee problem I got while hiking the Milford Track.
The version of squash I play with the boys (only hitting the ball when its on your side of the court) makes it 'low impact', so I haven't had any joint problems with it yet. (It is certainly less punishing than the adult Judo classes were!).
I guess the trick is is to do whatever activities you enjoy the most, as the main thing is to 'want' to do the activity regularly. I found attending a gym and doing circuit training was too much of chore - I was dreading 'having' to go, and looking for excuses to skip a session. With squash (so far) I am looking forward to my weekly session with the boys.
I recently bought a Kayak and plan on using it during the school holidays (when I'm not spending most of the weekend daylight hours driving the boys to their activities).
