Performing a fitness self-assessment will help you to discover your strengths, weaknesses and opportunities for growth. The NHS provide a free fitness self-assessment which can help you to discover your own fitness levels and where you need to improve. Adults aged 19 – 64 should aim to be active daily and should include both aerobic activities and strength exercises.
You should aim to be doing 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity, which sounds like a lot but don't worry you don't have to do it all at once and can break it down into 10-minute slots. When we say 'moderate' we mean you should feel slightly warm and be breathing faster than normal but still able to talk and hold a conversation. Along with the aerobic activities you should also be trying to do strength exercises twice a week to help build muscle with focus around your legs, hips, back and arms.
