A few months ago, the recommended daily amount (RDA) of exercise was dramatically increased. I don’t remember what the RDA is, but I remember my reaction: “You have got to be kidding!” New studies show that even if you do less exercise, it still helps. (Although how much less is still an open question it seems. I want to know what the absolute minimum amount of exercise is.) (BTW, I know RDA is for nutrients, but it seems applicable to exercise too.)
