Team Fitness Gurus: Creating Your Fitness Plan No. 11




Just 10 Minutes

The Surgeon General has recommended that older adults exercise at least 2 hours and 30 minutes a week. This includes favorite exercises as well as muscle-strengthening activities. This may sound like a lot of time, but it is just 150 minutes that become an investment each week that can dramatically improve your well-being.

According to the Surgeon General, you can develop an exercise strategy that spreads this amount of time into smaller chunks of time such as ten minute workout sessions. Recent CDC facts inform us that, by age 75, about one in three men and one in two women engage in no physical activity. Do not allow yourself to be included in this statistic, invest the time to stay as fit as possible, after all its only 150 minutes a week or 15 ten minute sessions.
