Athletes with certain goals may need to perform above the maintenance requirement, but in general, active adults can achieve great results using the 30-minute strategy.
Get Fit and Healthy
Most of us want to feel good and look good naked with a simple exercise routine. This is possible without extreme workouts or lifting super heavy. If the extreme is what you enjoy, and it works for your body, go for it. I am addressing the norm demographic of everyday people who just want to get fit and be healthy.What is Recommended?
Studies have shown that 150-minutes per week of moderate aerobic activity such as brisk walking are sufficient to maintain a healthy body. It would be reduced to 75-minutes per week for vigorous exercise like running or attending an aerobics class. High-intensity interval training reduces the minutes per workout even more.
Also recommended is weight resistance training two days per week. Although the guidelines are quite variable with weightlifting, you can accomplish an effective workout in less than 45-minutes.
Everyone has 30-minutes to give to their health regardless of any excuse. Sorry, true story. If health and fitness are a priority, the exercise will be a priority and that's the simple truth of it.

Give it 30-Minutes
Maintaining a healthy body is a fairly basic process. Exercise for 30-minutes five days per week and eat right at least 80% of the time for best results. It's really not that complicated.Everyone has 30-minutes to give to their health regardless of any excuse. Sorry, true story.

The best part about getting your sweat on for 30-minutes is making it your own. Creating workouts that are enjoyable is what builds a lifestyle of physical activity.
If being outdoors motivates you, lace up the tennis shoes or hiking boots and find some fun trails. If using cardio equipment and listening to music floats your boat, go for it. Love to lift weights? Get to the gym and put in the time.

What you do to increase the heart rate at a moderate level for that amount of time is up to you. The point is to just to move for 30-minutes.Stick to the basics of exercise.

Effective and Efficient Exercise
Working in the industry for over 30 years, I have come to appreciate the simplicity of fitness. It truly doesn't require as much time as you think to be a healthy person.For example, I keep my workouts to a one-hour session or less if performing interval training. Honestly, I can achieve an effective workout and prefer exercising for 30-minutes because it fits with my work schedule.
As long as you challenge your body and perform quality exercise movements, it's good enough. Try not to get caught up in the stress of what you think exercise is according to fitness marketing. Honestly, some of the things I see out there are kinda scary.
