Exercise is so important that not walking an hour a day is considered a “high-risk” behavior. Watch the video “Longer Life Within Walking Distance” at https://bit.ly/2BsKqJP to learn more.
Ideally, how much should we exercise? Dr. Greger’s Daily Dozen app recommends engaging in at least 90 minutes of moderate-intensity activity or 40 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity every day.
Examples of Moderate-Intensity Activity include walking briskly (4 mph), hiking, biking, canoeing, paddleboarding, swimming recreationally, doing yoga, skateboarding, ice-skating, dancing, downhill skiing, and doing yard work.
Examples of Vigorous-Intensity Activity include walking briskly uphill, biking uphill, circuit weight training, jumping rope, running, playing football, rock climbing, speed skating, cross country skiing, and playing hockey.
* Before starting any vigorous physical activity, check with your doctor. If you are prone to feeling dizzy or have chronic unstable health conditions, it is always best to consult with your medical team before starting any new exercise routines.
