People who are physically active — whether that's on weekends only or more often — have lower mortality rates than inactive people, according to a new study. Here's how much exercise you really need.
Weekend warriors can still stave off disease even if they are packing their workouts into a couple of days, according to a new study.
People are also reading… There wasn't a big difference in all-cause or cause-specific mortality between those who exercise regularly and weekend warriors, as long as they were getting the same amount of moderate to vigorous physical activity in a week, said study author Leandro Rezende, adjunct professor of epidemiology in the department of preventive medicine at the Federal University of Sao Paulo in Brazil.
The results could help public health officials promote physical activity even among busy people and support the idea that"every minute of physical activity counts," said Eric Shiroma, staff scientist at the National Institute on Aging. "And family dinners not only represent quality time but also increase the odds of eating healthy as opposed to grabbing fast food."
"Bodies are designed for movement," Santas said."Being sedentary all week long could increase susceptibility to injury if you go too hard in your weekend workouts." And a big part of many aspects of health is getting good sleep. Getting enough daily exercise can help our bodies crave rest naturally at the end of the day, Santas said.
