How much aerobic exercise is enough? Well, you want to be able to walk briskly that when it's hard for you to count 1 to 10, like it should be 1, 2, 3. And you don't want to walk where you can have a conversation easily. So I recommend walking uphill, walking downhill, or walking with weights in your hand. So that way you can kind of challenge yourself some more. I'm not saying you go out there and run, but if you have access to a treadmill, walk with an incline around 7 degree incline, even up to 15 degrees of incline, and walking 30 minutes to 60 minutes, three to five times a week, you can do 60 minutes. That's even better.
