Physical exercise has a positive impact on your health.
Generally speaking, a minimum of 30 minutes of physical activity each day is recommended.
You really don’t need to go to the gym every day to get your daily exercise; the most important thing is to incorporate more movement into your daily routine. Take every set of stairs you come across, for example, go for a walk more often, go shopping on your bike, walk around while you are talking on the telephone, give up your seat for someone else or do little exercises each day. Gardening and housework also get your body moving.
As there are no disadvantages associated with exercising for 30 minutes each day, it is recommended that you incorporate sufficient movement into your everyday routine.
