Over the last several years, you’ve managed to fit a brisk 1/2 hr walk into your schedule on most days. The payback is you feel better, and friends say you look better too! Of course, getting into the habit of walking each day was the biggest hurdle, but now you look forward to your daily excursion. It feels perfect.
But a recent National Academy of Sciences report has you wondering if you’re doing enough. Taking into consideration the expanding girth of many North Americans, the academy is recommending that people get at least 60 mins of moderate activity on a daily basis.
So does this mean your 1/2 hr walk isn’t enough? The answer depends on your current health condition and your fitness goals.
