30 minutes recommended exercise - are you getting yours?

[MsJacquiiC]

Most people think you have to spend 60+ minutes per day exercising in order to get the benefits from it...this is simply not true! The recommendation is for 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week (i.e. 4-5 days). Don't have time to do all 30 minutes at once? You can split it into two sessions of 15 minutes. Now, who can't find 15 minutes twice per day to exercise???

Nice piece of advise from Rebecca Johnson, BS, CPT - Exercise Physiologist at New Life Center for Bariatric Surgery. Using this frame of thought - I'm on a ball - doing 45-60 minute walks a day. 4 or 5 days a week when the weather is good out. Feeling good about things.

Who else is exercising? Doing anything special? Joined a gym and work out regularly? Picked up a Sweatin to the Oldies and making use of it?

What's your routine? How are you getting your 30 minutes of recommended exercise?

Hi Admin,
Yes I have been doing exercise regularly since last 8 months and have lost extra weight with workout and diet meals. Regular exercise reduce high blood pressure and prevent from depression, anxiety, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and certain types of cancer.

Hypertension Also referred to as high blood pressure, HTH, HTN or HPN, hypertension is a medical condition in which the blood pressure is chronically elevated. In current usage, the word "hypertension" without a qualifier normally refers to arterial hypertension. The Mayo Clinic specifies blood pressure is "normal if it's below 120/80".

Diabetes Mellitus A disease that occurs when the body is not able to use blood glucose (sugar). Blood sugar levels are controlled by insulin, a hormone in the body that helps move glucose from the blood to muscles and other tissues. Diabetes occurs when the pancreas does not make enough insulin or the body does not respond to the insulin that is made. There are two main types of diabetes mellitus: Type 1 Diabetes and Type 2 Diabetes. All forms of diabetes have been treatable since insulin became medically available in 1921, but there is no cure.
