Answer: D - The American College of Sports Medicine’s 2011 “Guidance for Prescribing Exercise” states that cardiovascular exercise can be performed in one long sustained session - or broken up throughout the day - as long as each bout of exercise is at least 10 minutes long. The current recommendations state that healthy adults should attempt to perform a minimum of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week, but that any amount of exercise is beneficial. Of special interest is the fact that a sedentary job or lifestyle creates its own health risks, even if the individual participates in regular exercise.
