The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the American Heart Association (AHA) updated physical activity guidelines for healthy adults under age 65 are as follows:
- Do moderately intense cardio 30 minutes a day, five days a week OR Do vigorously intense cardio 20 minutes a day, 3 days a week AND 8-10 strength training exercises, 8 to 12 repetitions of each exercise twice a week.
Moderate-intensity physical activity means working hard enough to raise your heart rate and break a sweat, yet still be able to carry on a conversation. It should be noted that to lose weight or maintain weight loss, 60 to 90 minutes of physical activity may be necessary. The 30-minute recommendation is for the average healthy adult to maintain health and reduce the risk for chronic disease.
