The Results of Regular Exercise
You should exercise at least 2 and half hours a week of moderate exercise moderate intensity activity or 1 hour 15 for high intensity exercise vigorous intensity activity
To help keep healthy and live longer any kind of exercise a day is proven to reduce illnesses.
Adults should:
On a daily basis at home I usually exercise 5 or 6 days a week. This may sound a lot however for me just doing some physical exercise makes me feel better in the mind and in my appearance.
The Guidelines state that adults should:
- work on shoulders, hips, abdomen, legs, chest and arms at least two days a week which are strengthening activities. Open link for ideas
- Avoid lying down or sitting for longer than you should by incorporating some form of exercise.
My weekly activities are:
- Monday - 15 min cardio (bike or stepper) 20 min HIIT training
- Tuesday - 45 min cycle along canal
- Wednesday - 20/30 min Yoga/Pilates
- Thursday - 45 min cycle along canal
- Friday - 20 min HIIT 10 min abs
- Saturday - Rest Day
- Sunday - 30 min cycle or 30 min bike/stepper
This is my weekly schedule that I work towards however sometimes I simply do not have time with my busy life studying, working and children. I will change this to suit my schedule with less days but longer sessions so I make up my 2 and half hours physical exercise a week. as long as you do your recommended weekly target it does not matter if you do it over two days as long as you participate.
