	Clive  +  248874 Tue, 25 Jul 06 09:45 PM Hi guys, 1. How often do you do exercise / take exercise / exercise? A is OK, as noted earlier. B is a bit formal and rather old-fashioned. C is very commonly said.

	sitifan  +  627442 Wed, 31 Dec 08 07:40 AM If you don't do or don't take much exercise, it means that you don't actually perform an activity such as running,walking,playing tennis or whatever. Get exercise is quite different. This means receive some kind of exercise as a result of an activity. Sitting at a desk you would obviously not receive or benefit from any exercise at all. http://www.english-test.net/forum/ftopic11298.html sitifan Joined on Fri, Mar 14 2008 Taiwan Full Member 251 Thank you very much for your reply.

	Clive  +  637603 Sat, 10 Jan 09 02:32 PM Hi, Much depends on the context but, generally speaking, 'I don't get a lot of exercise' suggests to me that the speaker wants to exercise but is unable to, perhaps because of a lack of opportunity or even a lack of will-power.
