Exercise

The expert opinion provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the American College of Sports Medicine is that adults between the age of 18 and 64 should participate in at least 150 minutes of moderately intense aerobic exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic exercise spread out over three days a week.  Regular exercise will improve the function of your organs, mainly your heart and lungs, but also decreasing the likelihood  of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol and even cancer.

The goal of this section is to provide easy workouts that can easily be integrated into a daily schedule to provide someone with at least 30 minutes of physical activity. We are providing ideas and options to workout on your own when you have free time but often the most effective way to exercise is with a partner.

Lots of groups or companies will say that they have the perfect machine to help you sculpt your body, which may be true, but there is no need to spend hundreds of dollars to see results from exercising. 

As you begin to do these exercises daily it is just a matter of time before they become easier and easier. Begin to push yourself, do more reps or one more pushup or situp or another lap. You will not see results unless you push yourself, so start today!
