The minutes per week that guidelines state, and how to split them across days.
Adults are advised 150 to 300 minutes of moderate aerobic activity per week, or 75 to 150 minutes of vigorous activity. Moderate effort lets you talk but not sing; vigorous effort makes talking difficult.
The weekly total can be split in many ways. Five sessions of 30 minutes reach 150. Three sessions of 50 minutes reach the same. Three sessions of 25 vigorous minutes reach 75.
Mixing intensities is allowed. One vigorous minute counts as about two moderate minutes, so a week can combine both without recalculating from scratch.
On narrow screens, swipe or scroll the plate sideways.
Sessions do not need to be continuous. Short bouts accumulate; the guideline is about the weekly sum, not the length of any single bout.
Keep at least one lighter day if a joint feels warm or swollen after activity. The range is a target, not a daily requirement.
Track the total in a simple log: date, minutes, and effort level. That makes it easy to see whether the week landed inside the 150–300 range.
