week 2 questions

what are the ACSM guidelines for cardiorespiratory exercises?

• Adults should get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week.
• Exercise recommendations can be met through 30-60 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise (five days per week) or 20-60 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise (three days per week).
• One continuous session and multiple shorter sessions (of at least 10 minutes) are both acceptable to accumulate the desired amount of daily exercise.
• Gradual progression of exercise time, frequency and intensity are recommended for best adherence and least injury risk.
• People unable to meet these minimums can still benefit from some activity.
