how long do have to exercise?
912931
if you want to lose weight, you need to exercise at least an hour and at least more than three times per week, provided you have a diet plan as well.\n if you just want to keep yourself fit then half an hour twice a week will be enough

at least 30 min. if you are in pretty good shape, 45 if you are looking to improve.

The recommended amount to ensure a healthy heart and body is to take 30 minutes of moderate exercise 4 to 7 days a week. As long as the exercise raises your heart rate, makes you sweat and doesn't prevent you from being able to conduct a slightly out of breath conversation (if you can't talk, it's too much) it doesn't matter what it is - it could be ballroom dancing, walking, gardening, running, swimming - anything.  Don't forget that resting is also necessary as exercise "breaks" muscle fibres which then "heal" to form stronger, thicker muscles (this is normal).  Resting allows the body to heal itself.

There are no guaranties in life sister but try a good diet with all the good fats, carbohydrates & cholesterols. Perform 4 to 5 days of cardio per week for 30 to 60 minutes sessions. Resistance training is always a plus. Lastly be sure to get plenty of rest.

All good advice!  Also: Be sure a majority of your workout is cardio (moving & sweating) Your cardio needs to be at least 30 minutes hard and heavy!  Watch and cut back and then completely off of these things: cheeses, sweets,soft drinks,fast food, and finally snacking at nite on anything but fruits and salads!  Drink plenty of water. Hope this helps some.....

cardio is great for that. and yes a hour is fine, you only need 30 minutes of elevated heart rate a day for good health. but if you can do the hour keep it up good work.

most people say 25-60 mins. But the mins don't matter. The level of intensity does.

Yes, in about 6 weeks. \nAlso, to stay healthy, you need to rest every other day. (If you work out every day, it can harm more than help!)\n Last piece of advice: Know your limits.

I seen a documentary on TV a while back that was about exercise and it's benefits, they say people who worked out 30 Min's a day for three days a week can literally add years to their lives! guess you can only try!

You may be running too fast. Slow down to where you are comfortable. It takes about 4 months to get in shape and then you will no longer have stiches at a comfortable pace.

As many press ups as you can do in two minutes for a man about 45. As many sit ups as you can do in two minutes for a man about 50. And one and a half mile run in 10 mins.\nIf you can't manage these they will build you up to them.\nPlus every year you have to do standard combat fitness test (CFT) with pack, rifle and helmet were you have too march four miles in one hour no less no more as a unit.

It depends on what gear you use, but probably right around double or a bit over. Go for about 7 miles but you won't be excercising the same muscles cycling as you would be running. It's not the same.

40 minutes of cardio and some light weight work.  Also watch your food intake, plenty of protiens and good carbs.  Also be sure you drink plenty of water.

By definition, exercise is discomfort.  Find the most uncomforatble type of exercise you can and force yourself to do it for 3 months.  You'll be ripped.  Then maintain by doing crunches and pushups at home.

Congratulations on getting started with an exercise program!  15 minutes a day was a good start, but I suggest you work up to 30 minutes every other day and walk at a pace that challenges you (increased breathing and elevated heart rate).  As your fitness level increases, try walking every day, increase your walking time to 45 minutes, add in hilly terrain, etc.  \n\nMake sure you have a good comfortable pair of walking shoes.\n\nGood luck!
