Get to stepping (and sweating)

Here are science-based recommendations to help improve your health:

  • Sit less throughout the day. Even light-intensity activity can offset some of the health risks of being sedentary.

  • Get at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic (aka cardio) activity such as jogging, swimming, cycling, hiking, or walking, preferably spread throughout the week.

  • Add muscle-strengthening activity, such as resistance or weights, at least 2 days per week.

Note: these recommendations are for those 18+. See recommendations for kids here.
