"How much physical activity do children need?"

The CDC recommends 60 minutes of physical activity every day (for both children and adolescents). The link below discusses the three types of exercises, which are: aerobic, muscle strength, and bone strengthening.

1. Aerobic exercise (e..g., brisk walking or running) should be done at least 3 days per week, (60 or more minutes).

2. Muscle Strengthening (e.g., gymnastics or push-ups) should be done at least 3 days/week as part of your child's 60 or more minutes.

3. Bone Strengthening (e.g., jumping rope or running) should be done at least 3 days/week as part of your child's 60 or more minutes.
