HOW OFTEN? (Frequency of Workouts)
2875
The American Heart Association recommends that you exercise at least 3 to 4 days per week to maintain
cardiovascular fitness. If you have other goals such as weight or fat loss, you will achieve your goal faster with
3003
more frequent exercise. Whether it's 3 days or 6 days, remember that your ultimate goal should be to make
exercise a lifetime habit. Many people are successful staying with a fitness program if they set aside a specific
3250
time of day to exercise. It doesn't matter whether it's in the morning before breakfast, during lunch hour or while
5.0
2.0
watching the evening news. What's more important is that it's a time that allows you to keep a schedule, and a
5198
150
455
time when you won't be interrupted. To be successful with your fitness program, you have to make it a priority in
5.0
2.0
your life. So decide on a time, pull out your day planner and pencil in your exercise times for the next month!

HOW LONG? (Duration of Workouts)
6348
172
532
For aerobic exercise benefits, it's recommended that you exercise from between 24 and 60 minutes per
5.0
2.0
6737
session. But start slowly and gradually increase your exercise times. If you've been sedentary during the past
178
543
year, it may be a good idea to keep your exercise times to as little as five minutes initially. Your body will need
time to adjust to the new activity. If your goal is weight loss, a longer exercise session at lower intensities has
been found to be most effective. A workout time of 48 minutes or more is recommended for best weight loss
results.
HOW HARD? (Intensity of Workouts)
How hard you workout is also determined by your goals. If you use your treadmill to prepare for a 5K run, you will
probably work out at a higher intensity than if your goal is general fitness. Regardless of your long term goals,
always begin an exercise program at low intensity. Aerobic exercise does not have to be painful to be beneficial!
There are two ways to measure your exercise intensity. The first is by monitoring your heart rate (using the grip
pulse handlebars or a wireless chest transmitter - may be sold separately), and the second is by evaluating your
perceived exertion level (this is simpler than it sounds!).
PERCEIVED ExERTION LEVEL
A simple way to gauge your exercise intensity is to evaluate your perceived exertion level. While exercising, if you
are too winded to maintain a conversation without gasping, you are working out too hard. A good rule of thumb
is to work to the point of exhilaration, not exhaustion. If you cannot catch your breath, it's time to slow down.
Always be aware of these warning signs of overexertion.
