How Much Exercise Should You Be Doing?

27 Jun 2020
share

New exercise recommendations by age and ability

– Preschool-age (3 through 5 years): physically active throughout the day with the goal of three hours of activity daily

– Children and teens (6 through 17 years): at least 60 minutes daily of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity; include vigorous activity, muscle-strengthening, and bone-strengthening activity three times a week

– Adults: at least 150 to 300 minutes weekly of moderate-intensity aerobic activity, or 75 to 150 minutes weekly of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity, or an equivalent combination of both, plus muscle-strengthening activities on at least two days a week

– Older adults: multicomponent physical activities that mix balance activities, aerobic activities, and strength training can help prevent falls and injuries; reduce overall sitting and replace it with light (or when possible, moderate) activity

– Pregnant and postpartum women: at least 150 minutes weekly of moderate-intensity aerobic activity
Adults with chronic conditions or disabilities: follow adult guidelines as able, including both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities
