W OFTEN?
American Heart Association recommends that you exercise at least 3 to 4 days
week to maintain cardiovascular fitness. If you have other goals such as weight
t loss, you will achieve your goal faster with more frequent exercise. Whether
days or 6 days, remember that your ultimate goal should be to make exer-
a lifetime habit. Many people are successful staying with a fitness program if
set aside a specific time of day to exercise. It doesn’t matter whether it’s in
morning before your shower, during lunch hour or while watching the evening
. What’s more important is that it’s a time that allows you to keep a sched-
and a time when you won’t be interrupted. If you are to be successful with
fitness program, you have to make it a priority in your life. So decide on a
pull out your day planner and pencil in your exercise times for the next
h!
W LONG?
erobic exercise benefits, it’s recommended that you exercise from between
nd 32 minutes per session. But start slowly and gradually increase your exer-
imes. If you’ve been sedentary during the past year, it may be a good idea to
your exercise times to as little as five minutes initially. Your body will need
to adjust to the new activity. If your goal is weight loss, a longer exercise ses-
at lower intensities has been found to be most effective. A workout time of
inutes or more is recommended for best weight loss results.

progress. If your goals are long term, divide them up into monthly and week-

with several readouts that can be used to record your progress. You can track
