Question:\u00a0<\/strong>I understand that exercise is really important, but no matter how hard I try, I can\u2019t seem to fit a full workout into my busy schedule. What are some things I can do to stay in shape without going to the gym?<\/p>\n

Answer<\/strong>: It\u2019s great that you recognize how important physical activity is, and you want to fit exercise into your daily routine. As a Together Counts\u2122<\/a> program partner encouraging healthy, active living, we know any time is a great time to focus on fitness. The USDA recommends that adults get two and a half hours of moderate physical activity every week, and it doesn\u2019t matter how you fit them into your schedule. A full 30-minute workout, two 15- minute sessions, or three 10-minute sessions per day for five days a week will help you reach that goal. You don\u2019t need to go to the gym for moderate exercise. In fact, walking at a quick pace is a great way to keep your body in shape! Here are some practical ways to add more physical activity to your daily routine.<\/p>\n
