Recommendations for Amount of Exercise

Health professionals say that adults should be getting 150 - 300 minutes of moderate exercise each week. Though preschool aged kids should be exercising each day, there is not a set guideline for them. Children and teens should be getting 60 minutes of moderate exercise each day. If you are participating in vigorous-intensity exercise they recommend you don't have to exercise as long. For more information on exercise recommendations visit Medlineplus.
