We know people should typically get at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise five days a week, as well as two or more days of muscle-strengthening activities, to support the health of your body and brain. But it’s not always easy to get a half-hour workout on the schedule.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, you don’t have to. Instead, those 30 minutes can come from small bouts of movement throughout the day. By tweaking a few habits and pairing exercise with tasks you already do, you can find 30 minutes for daily physical activity without breaking a sweat.
