How many minutes of exercise do you need

Exercise

The latest government guidelines for exercise:

  • People need 30 minutes of physical activity on most days to ward off chronic disease.
  • To prevent unhealthy weight gain, people should spend 60 minutes on physical activity on most days.
  • Previously overweight people who have lost weight may need 60 to 90 minutes of exercise to keep the weight off.

90 minutes of exercise? Yeah, right

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about How many minutes of exercise do you need. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
