Question

Which of the following activities could a 35 year old women add to her weekly 1 hour brisk walk to meet the general guidelines recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture and the American College of Sports Medicine?

A) 25 minutes of bicycling
B) 35 minutes of running
C) 45 minutes of swimming
D) 55 minutes of water aerobics

Answer 1

I would say 55 minutes of water aerobics since in the water there is resistance from the water so overcoming the resistance creates a better aerobic workout ie better than just workouts in the air like the brisk walk so this would complement the brisk walk.
