2 Hours a Week: Unlock Major Health Benefits, Boost Heart Health

• Just 2 hours of exercise per week can significantly improve health, especially for sedentary individuals.
• Starting with even a small amount of physical activity reduces the risk of death from cardiovascular diseases by 20%.
• The greatest health benefits occur when a non-exerciser begins, with benefits leveling off after 4-6 hours per week.
• While 4-6 hours is ideal for heart disease risk, 7-9 hours can improve heart structure and fitness levels.
• For busy schedules, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) or weekend sessions offer maximum return on investment.

Why It Matters: Even minimal exercise, starting with just 2 hours a week, offers significant health and heart benefits.
