You may only need 11 minutes of exercise each day to live longer, research suggests
Research has shown that exercise can improve your life expectancy, because it lowers your risk of developing age-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. It may be difficult however, to find time, space, or fun ways to get in exercise during the coronavirus pandemic. According to an analysis from CNBC about a study published in the British Journal of Medicine, new research suggests that you may only need 11 minutes of exercise each day to live longer. The new study finds people who sat for about eight to 10 hours daily, but managed to clock about 11 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous exercise a day, were less likely to die than those who only got about two minutes of exercise a day. In perspective, the physical activity guidelines for Americans suggest that adults should get 150-300 minutes a week (or 20-45 minutes a day) of moderate-intensity activity, or 75-150 minutes a week (or 10 to 20 minutes a day) of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity.
