If you''re like most Americans, you work in a profession that requires little vigorous physical activity. You drive to and from work, and at home you engage in leisure activities like watching TV. The comforts and conveniences of modern society are lulling people into complacency. And it isn''t healthy. Despite the overwhelming evidence that exercise will make you healthier, more than 60 percent of U.S. adults do not engage in the recommended amount of activity. And 25 percent of adults don''t exercise at all.

There are also non-weight-bearing aerobic exercises, such as bicycling, stationary cycling, swimming and rowing. Keep the pace comfortable. A very important aspect of your exercise program is the intensity. You should exercise at a comfortable pace. You can measure your exercise heart rate to check the intensity of your exercising, or you can take the "talk test." To measure your heart rate, take your pulse as soon as you stop exercising. Count your heartbeat for 10 seconds, and then multiply that by six to convert it to a one-minute heart rate. If you keep your exercise heart rate within a range of 55 percent to 80 percent of an estimated maximum heart rate (220 minus your age), you''re doing well. The talk test is easier to accomplish. Just exercise at a pace that allows you to carry on a conversation while you''re exercising. How often should you exercise? Three to four days of aerobic activity is fine for general health maintenance.

If you''re trying to lose weight, aim for four or more days a week, being sure you take off at least one day a week. How long should you exercise? Work up to 20 or more minutes per session for general health maintenance. For weight loss, gradually work up to 45 minutes or longer at low to moderate intensities in a low- or no-impact activity. . Strength conditioning gives you a choice Pick calisthenics, free weights or machines. Just be sure that your strength training includes exercises for every major muscle group, including the muscles of the arms, chest, back, stomach, hips and legs. Start with a weight that''s comfortable to handle and keep it up for eight repetitions. Gradually add more repetitions until you can complete 12 repetitions. For greater strength conditioning, add more weight and/or more repetitions, in sets of eight to 12, when the exercise becomes easy.
