Cardio - Just 10 Minutes!

Dedicating the recommended 30-60 minutes, three times a week to cardiovascular activity can be a daunting task. Here is some good news - small bouts of exercise can be just as effective. Three 10 minute periods of physical activity accumulated over the day can have the same effect on prevention as longer stints of exercise. So make the commitment to exercise today!



Today's society is hung up on how exercise can help with weight loss. It's more important than that... it’s about prolonging your life . Scientific research strongly supports the role of physical activity in the prevention and treatment of disease. Regularly participating in physical activity can:

  • Lower your risk of developing heart disease, stroke, certain cancers, diabetes and high blood pressure.
  • Help keep bones strong, reducing the risk of osteoporosis. It can also slow the progression of the disease.
  • Reduce joint pain and improve function for people with arthritis.
  • Help manage stress and relieve symptoms from anxiety and depression.
