Do you know that adults should put in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity each week? Although 150 minutes or 2.5 hours a week seem like a lot, if you break it down, it is about 30 minutes each day for a period of five days.
Regular physical activity can help not only in weight management, but it also reduces your health risk like cardiovascular disease and diabetes. It helps to strengthen your bones and muscles, thereby improving your physical function, and may help you live longer.
According to the 2019 National Population Health Survey conducted by the Ministry of Health, 40.2 per cent of Singaporeans aged between 18 and 74 do not participate in any leisure-time physical activity. 19.9 per cent of Singaporeans have insufficient total physical activity, which includes physical activity at work, commuting and leisure-time physical activity.
To help you get started, here are three types of physical activity you can engage in. You might also want to check out Decathlon’s clearance sale for some good deals on sports apparel and equipment.
1. Lifestyle activity
Lifestyle activity, like its name suggests, encompasses activities that you can carry out in your daily life. This includes doing household chores, carrying groceries, taking the stairs, standing instead of sitting down to do work, or walking instead of taking the public transport.
