I second Melavai's suggestion to try to work in active transportation into your day any way you can.
There are some great suggestions here; I am looking forward to incorporating more movement into my day.

I agree with V. it depends what your goal is.
When I am super-crunched, I do kettlebell swings. It's aerobic and strength training. Total workout, 5 minutes or less.
If I have a full 30 minutes and I want it on the bike or run, intervals will give you the greatest benefit in the shortest amount of time.2005 Giant TCR2

Historically I do commute everywhere but recently I have been super sick. Likely stemming from a nasty sinus infection that I am after several weeks I'm just starting to fully kick. I am a bit apprehensive to ride in the cold right now til I feel 100% normal. This was why I was wanting to do indoor workouts for a while. With the load of work I have right now I cannot risk getting sick. I have been doing some intervals on my trainer. My main goal is not to lose the fitness I already have.
