In a fast-paced world, prioritizing our well-being is crucial. Yet, a staggering 60 percent of Americans fall short of meeting the recommended levels of physical activity, as highlighted by the esteemed Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The implications of this statistic are profound, as it can potentially lead to negative health outcomes.
Engaging in regular physical activity offers many benefits for both physical and mental well-being. According to NIH “Adults need at least 150-300 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity or 75-150 minutes of vigorous-intensity physical activity per week.”
Finding activities you enjoy and incorporating them into your daily routine can help you experience these health benefits and maintain a healthy lifestyle. It's important to note that the specific benefits may vary depending on the type, intensity, and duration of physical activity.
