Teens Getting
Fit!

If you've decided to get fit, don't keep putting it off!
Stretch. Stretching can help keep you flexible.
You will be able to move more freely. Stretch when your muscles
are warmed up. Never stretch so far that it hurts Be
sure to get at least 30 minutes of activity that makes you
breathe harder on most or all days of the week.
That’s called “endurance activity,” because
it builds your energy or “staying power.” You
don’t have to be active for 30 minutes all at once.
Ten minutes of endurance activity at a time is fine. Just
make sure those 10-minute sessions add up to a total of 30
minutes most days.
