Want to get fit by the book? The USDA's recommendations for 2005 advise that adults:

 

Should engage in at least 30 minutes on most days of the week of moderate intensity exercise to reduce disease Need to manage weight and prevent weight gain by performing 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity fitness exercise and aerobic exercise workouts on most days of the week Preferably should sustain weight loss by doing 60-90 minutes of weight loss exercise on most days of the week, with the appropriate calorie intake

 

Not everyone will be able to follow these guidelines vigorously, and your exercise needs are as unique as you are. The guidelines can, however, help you plan time for exercise and set your own exercise priorities.
