How much physical activity do you need? Here are the American Heart Association recommendations for adults.

Fit in 150+

  • Get at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes per week of vigorous aerobic activity (or a combination of both), preferably spread throughout the week.
  • Move More, Sit Less
  • Get up and move throughout the day. Any activity is better than none. Even light-intensity activity can offset the serious health risks of being sedentary.
  • Add Intensity
  • Moderate to vigorous aerobic exercise is best. Your heart will beat faster, and you’ll breathe harder than normal. As you get used to being more active, increase your time and/or intensity to get more benefits.
  • Add Muscle
  • Include moderate- to high-intensity muscle-strengthening activity (like resistance or weight training) at least twice a week.
