- It is important to be physical fit to be able to enjoy life.
- Being active everyday and purposefully exercising are important for your physical fitness.
- It is generally accepted that physical activity and exercise are beneficial for everyone, however it is important to communicate with your doctor.
- You need to do cardiorespiratory endurance exercise to support and build your heart and lungs.
- Cardio exercise intensity should be moderate to vigorous which can be measured by your perceived intensity or by measuring your heart rate.
- Cardio in any length is beneficial with a goal of a cumulative total of 150-300 minutes total from at least three days.
- Cardio exercises include any exercises where the body’s large muscles move in a rhythmic manner for a sustained period of time.
- You need to do strength training exercises to maintain and build your skeletal muscle.
- You must challenge your muscles by overloading them. You can do this by increasing the weight used or increasing the repetitions and sets.
- Make sure to strength train all major muscles groups at least two days/week.
- Stretching is important for flexibility.
- Getting adequate sleep is important for your health.
