INTRODUCTION

Guidelines for Healthy Adults The American
College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the American
Heart Association (AHA) are continuously updating
guidelines and recommendations for physical activity.
The current basic recommendations from ACSM and
AHA is:
Do moderately intense cardio 30 minutes a day, five
days a week.
Do vigorously intense cardio 20 minutes a day, three
days a week.
Do eight to ten strength-training exercises, eight to
twelve repetitions of each exercise twice a week.
Moderate-intensity physical activity means working
hard enough to raise your heart rate and break a
sweat, yet still being able to carry on a conversation.
It should be noted that to lose weight or maintain
weight loss, 60 to 90 minutes of physical activity may
be necessary. The 30 minute recommendation is for
the average healthy adult to maintain health and
reduce the risk for chronic disease.
To review the latest guidelines and recommendations,
visit the American College of Sports Medicine website:

Stop exercising immediately if you feel nausea,
dizziness, sharp pain, or any other physical
discomfort. Failure to stop exercising can result in
injury or death to yourself.
Train Intelligently
To ensure a future of good health, you should always
eat well balanced meals, drink plenty of fluid/water
during a workout, and stay fit by exercising intelligently.
Always follow training guidelines that are specific for
your own physical condition.
Injuries to health may result from incorrect or
excessive training. Failure to stop exercising can
result in injury or death to yourself.
