At a minimum, walk a mile or more several times a week (or daily) and move the arms around to loosen up the joints.

If you can't walk or ride a stationary bicycle, use a rowing machine, swim, or join wheel chair races.

If you can do none of these things, you have my sympathy.

I had a young colleague who suffered from polio in child- hood, so one leg was short and supported by a built-up shoe. One day, this person was absent from the office, because a lung had collapsed. He should at least have worked up his pulse rate and breathing on a rowing machine, several times per week.

Recent TV news said walking as little as 2œ hours per week can reduce rates of breast cancer, so 5 hours can't hurt females or males.

I find that a brisk half hour walk raises my pulse to about 115, then it drops back below 70 by the time I have finished my morning shower. My normal neighborhood route measures 1.8 miles.
