Based strictly on the guidance provided:\n\n*   **It is worth doing:** The text explicitly states that **\"any activity is better than none.\"** \n*   **It counters your desk job:** Because you sit for work, the guidance assures you that **\"even light activity brings some benefit compared with sitting.\"**\n*   **It is the correct type of exercise:** You do not need a gym; the text confirms that **\"brisk walking counts.\"**\n*   **It is the right mindset:** After years of not exercising, a 10-minute walk is the perfect way to **\"start small.\"**\n\n***\n\n**The First Fortnight (Built from the Excerpt's Principles)**\n\nThis 14-day plan uses only the excerpt's principles to move you from your current baseline toward the ultimate aim of **\"at least 150 minutes... a week.\"**\n\n**Week 1: \"Start small\"**\n*   **Days 1 through 7:** Take one 10-minute walk at lunch. \n*   *Excerpt Principle Applied:* You are proving that **\"brisk walking counts\"** and embracing the truth that **\"any activity is better than none.\"** \n*   *Weekly Total:* 70 minutes.\n\n**Week 2: \"Build up gradually\"**\n*   **Days 8 through 14:** Increase your lunch walk to 15 minutes. Additionally, incorporate 5 minutes of **\"light activity\"** into your workday to break up your desk job. \n*   *Excerpt Principle Applied:* You **\"build up gradually\"** toward the **\"150 minutes\"** weekly aim. By adding light activity to your workday, you actively utilize the principle that **\"even light activity brings some benefit compared with sitting.\"**\n*   *Weekly Total:* 140 minutes (20 minutes a day).",
