Do you want to gain even more health benefits from your exercise and physical activity? Gradually add more time to your weekly routine. Start with moderate activities and then add vigorous activities little by little.
To mix it up, you can try 30 minutes of biking fast to and from your job 3 days a week. Then play softball for 60 minutes 1 day. Then lift weights for 2 days.
Try to double your weekly activity time. Work to be active 5 or more hours each week. This activity level can lower your chances of getting breast and colon cancer.
Try something new - like playing competitive tennis, jogging or running, swimming laps, jumping rope, or doing heavy yard work. Pump up the volume so that during exercise, your breathing is hard and fast, and your heart rate is increased substantially within a safe heart range.
Everyone in the family can be physically active. Find fun activities that easily fit into your regular family life.
Start moving more:
✸ Walk or ride bikes with your family.
✸ Dance salsa, merengue, or cumbia.
✸ Play soccer, basketball, baseball, or volleyball with your friends.
