The benefits of exercise are many. When you begin to feel better, you function more efficiently resulting in added confidence and a feeling of well-being that carries over into every aspect of your daily life. Everyone begins a fitness program for different reasons. Some people are interested specifically in weight loss; others want to maintain their health. The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends that adults get an accumulated 30 minutes or more of simple physical activity most, if not all days of the week. For fitness benefits, according to the ACSM, adults should do 20 to 60 minutes of continuous aerobic activity, three to five days a week at 60 percent to 90 percent maximum heart rate using the major muscle groups (swimming or aerobics are good ways to accomplish this).
