The more exercise time, the better?

For people who often take part in physical exercise, the effective fitness activity time is 30 ~ 90 minutes every day. In the initial stage of participating in physical fitness activities, the exercise time can be slightly shorter. After a period of fitness activities, the body can adapt to exercise and can extend the exercise time. You can do one or more fitness activities alone every day, and the duration of each fitness activity should be more than 10 minutes.

People who are used to physical fitness activities should exercise 3-7 days a week, and exercise moderately for 30-60 minutes or intensively for 20-25 minutes every day. In order to achieve the ideal effect of fitness activities, we should carry out moderate-intensity exercise for more than 150 minutes or high-intensity exercise for more than 75 minutes every week.
