To improve overall cardiovascular health, The American Heart Association suggests at least 150 minutes per week of moderate exercise or 75 minutes per week of vigorous exercise (or a combination of moderate and vigorous activity).
Thirty minutes a day, five times a week is an easy goal to remember. You will also experience benefits even if you divide your time into two or three segments of 10 to 15 minutes per day.
It is a MYTH that you need an expensive gym membership, or a large amount of time to begin exercising. Starting with just 15 minutes every day will lead to noticeable improvement in your overall physical and mental health!
Beginner Workout:
-
20 body weight squats.
-
10 push ups.
-
20 walking lunges.
-
10 dumbbell rows (using a gallon milk jug)
-
15 second plank.
-
30 Jumping Jacks.

For weight loss, we suggest limiting yourself to 1500 total calories per day. Increase lean protein and green vegetables. Minimize carbs (breads, pastries, pastas, crackers, cookies), refined sugars, and ultra-processed food. Cooking all of your meals at home is generally healthier (and cheaper!) for you than eating at a restaurant or fast food places.
We recommend the Mediterranean diet for general health and well-being!
