YOUR TOTAL FITNESS PROGRAM EXERCISE GUIDELINES A Total Fitness Program is more than exercise and more than eating right. It is a “fitness for life” plan that goes hand in hand with an overall healthy lifestyle. This includes regular check-ups and exercise, now and for the rest of your life. If you are just starting an exercise program, choose a time of day that’s good for you and stick to it closely.

workouts to a total of 30 minutes most days of the week. If losing weight is one of your goals, you may want to gradually increase your workouts to 5 or 6 days per week. More frequent workouts at longer durations require the body to burn more calories and use stored fat for energy. For the first week or so, you may feel some muscle soreness. This is quite normal and will disappear in a matter of days.
