How Often Should You Exercise?
So how often do you need to exercise to reap these rewards? According to the CDC, the average adult needs around 150 minutes of moderately intense physical activity per week. While this might seem like a lot at first, it’s important to remember that this total time will be spread out into short sessions throughout the week. In fact, you will get much more out of 4-5 shorter exercise sessions per week than 1-2 longer sessions. In general, we recommend splitting the 150 minutes into 5 – 30 minute sessions evenly spread out through the week.
