FITNESS FACTS

  • The Centers for Disease Control recommends 2 ½ hours (150 minutes) of moderate-intensity aerobic activity (e.g., brisk walking) every week, and on 2 or more days a week muscle-strengthening activities that work all major muscle groups (legs, hips, back, abdomen, chest, shoulders, and arms).
  • Increasing the intensity or the amount of time that you are physically active can have even greater health benefits and may be needed to control body weight.
  • Ten minutes at a time is fine. Try going for a 10-minute brisk walk, twice a day, 5 days a week. This will give you a total of 100 minutes of moderate-intensity activity. Add in 10 minutes of improvised weight training (see 20-Minute Workout, below) or vigorous gardening 5 days a week to add up to the other 50 minutes of muscle-strengthening activities.
