150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week: moderate=12-15 ideal zone (conversational pace, look at the bohr rating of perceived exertion (6-20 scale) Resistance training at least 3 time per week. Aerobic: 150 minutes of moderate or 75 minutes of vigorous or an equivalence combo. Heart rate- frequency of heart beats (beats/minute) Blood pressure- pressure blood exerts on the blood vessel wall. Resistance training helps to reduce risk of osteoporosis (relates to bone density) Two main groups that should participate in resistance training: women and elderly. Osteoporosis develops in men as well, especially after the age of 40. Women should start in their early 20"s even.
