The U.S Department of Health and Human
Services issued new guidelines in 2008 to help Americans find ways to fit physical
activity into their daily plans.
How much physical activity do you need? Adults gain substantial health benefits
from 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate activity or 1 hour and 15 minutes of vigorous
activities per week.
Examples
Biking, walking briskly, and playing sports like tennis or baseball are examples
of moderate activity. Fast dancing, running and sports like basketball and soccer
are examples of vigorous activities.
