I read an article on Science Alert recently announcing a change in the latest US Exercise Guidelines. According to the article, which references the document published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, it’s no longer necessary to exercise for long periods of time; the total volume of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity is what counts.
Eighty percent of the country’s population is not getting the minimum amount of physical activity. The new guidelines encourage us to JUST KEEP MOVING! Although moderate-to-vigorous activity proves to be very beneficial for our health, it’s not completely necessary; just sit less, move more and reap the rewards.
What do you think about these new guidelines?
