Assess your long-term physical activity level. Do not

exercise habits have changed less than six months ago.
Low Exercise is not a regular part of your life.
You walk only for pleasure or occasionally
exercise sufficiently to cause heavy
breathing or perspiration.
Middle You participate regularly in recreational
sports. For example, you run 5 miles/ 8km
a week or spend 30 – 60 minutes a week
in comparable physical activity. Or, your
work requires modest physical activity.
High Exercise is an inseparable part of your life.
You exercise regularly at least 3 times a
week with heavy paced intensity. Exercise
causes clear breathlessness and sweating.
For example, you run regularly more than
10 miles/ 16 km a week or spend more
than 1,5 - 2 hours in comparable physical
activity.

exercise at least 5 times a week. E.g. you
