Benefits of Exercise
Study after study shows that regular physical activity – even at moderate levels – reduces the risk of
heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure and obesity, and enhances physical and mental functioning.
Despite this, a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed that 55% of
American adults didn't move enough in 2019 to meet the minimum recommendation of 30 minutes of
moderate physical activity on most days of the week. And a Gallup Health and Healthcare Survey found
that just 45% of Americans regularly engaged in vigorous exercise in 2020 – down from 52% in 2019.
(WebMD, 2020)
The key is to find the right exercise for you. If it is fun, you are more likely to stay in the zone!
Getting Started2
The path to a regular exercise routine has great rewards as well as roadblocks. Our goal is to help make
it simple and safe – and give you motivation to push on. 3
According to medical experts, most adults need at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity at
least five days per week. Examples include walking briskly, mowing the lawn, dancing, swimming, or
bicycling. Stretching and weight training can also strengthen your body and improve your fitness level.
If you've been inactive for a while, use a sensible approach and start out slowly. (Shree, 2020, p. 22)

Tips for Staying Motivated

It seems that the most difficult part of starting or sticking to a fitness plan is just that, starting and
sticking to it. Here are our tips for starting and maintaining a healthy exercise routine:
 Find something you enjoy. Take a dance class, learn to ski or swim, or try yoga or hiking. Try
them all. Keep experimenting until you find an activity that moves you, mentally and physically.
 Set goals. Write them down, review them often, and be realistic. If you create specific,
measureable, action-oriented goals, your chance of achieving them is greater. Be sure to set a
time frame for achieving your goals.
 Be a morning exerciser. Statistics show that people are more likely to stick with a fitness
program if they exercise first thing in the (WebMD, 2020) morning.
 Schedule your workout. Add workouts to your calendar as you would any other appointment. If
you must cancel your workout session, schedule it for another time instead of skipping it.
 Have a partner. Exercise can be very social, whether you are involved in a team sport or not.
Sharing a commitment with a friend or spouse increases your commitment.
 Reward yourself. Rewards can inspire you to set small goals along the way to larger ones. Just
make sure the rewards are not food related.
 Chart your progress. Start by getting a fitness assessment—your weight, measurements, and
BMI—when you first begin a program. In three months, you'll see how much progress you
made.
 Try a mind-body approach. Starting out with classes like yoga or Pilates, in which you focus on
breathing and stretching, can give you a taste of exercise's feel-good benefits right off the bat.
You feel an immediate stress release, and you may feel the benefits sooner without feeling the
soreness that comes with strength training or cardio fitness programs.
 Abandon the all-or-nothing approach. If you don’t have an hour, do 30 minutes. If you work
smart, you can reap the benefits from a 30-minute workout. And recognize you're fallible. If you
miss a day or a week, don’t beat yourself up. Just get back into your routine and stop
procrastinating.
