Exercise Standards
In 1998, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommended the
following guidelines for healthy adults:
- Mode of activity: Any activity that uses large muscle groups
that can be continuously maintained. Examples include walking,
jogging, running, swimming, skating, bicycling, rowing, cross-country
skiing, rope jumping, jazzercise, dancing of various kinds, and other
rhythmic activities.
- Frequency: 3 to 5 days a week.
- Intensity: 55%/65% to 90% of maximum heart rate. (Maximum
heart rate is approximately 220 minus the person's age.)
- Duration: 20 to 60 minutes of continuous or intermittent
aerobic activity. (Intermittent means bouts of 10-minutes or more
accumulated through the day.)
- Resistance training: Strength training of moderate intensity,
with one set of 8 to 12 repetitions of 8 to 10 exercises that
condition the major muscle groups 2 or 3 days per week.
- Flexibility training: Sufficient to develop and maintain
range of motion; a minimum of 2 or 3 days per week.
