Exercise guidelines headed your way
First, there was the food pyramid. Now, comes an exercise version.
The Bush administration has announced that it is planning to create guidelines for physical activity. They should be ready by late 2008.
If you can't wait that long, you can always hit the Web for some help. The President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports (Fitness.gov) has a lot of information as does the American Heart Association. The YMCA also offers Ready, Fit classes for those just beginning to exercise.
So get out there and move that booty!
