In the age of instant gratification, the official fitness guidelines for healthy adults which were adopted by the World Health Organisation has been revised. The previous 30 minutes of gentle exercise a day is not enough to improve your health according to scientists.
The new guidelines say:
· 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day is still the minimum, but vigorous as opposed to moderate activity should be "explicitly" recommended
· Combining days of moderate exercise with other days of vigorous exercise is better for you
· Moderate exercise should be in addition to daily activities such as casual walking, shopping or taking out the rubbish
· People should do two weight-training sessions a week
Consult the doctor would be good advice for persons suffering chronic illnesses.
