What is exercise at a moderate intensity???

So I'm sure you have heard that when you workout it is important to at least be at a moderate intensity. Well...what is moderate intensity supposed to feel like? It's a tad subjective since one person's perceived intensity level will be different from another. Check out my little video explaining what moderate intensity is and how to know whether you are there. 




Recap:
Clues to know you are exercising at a moderate level:
1.) You breathing quickens, but you're not out of breath
2.) You develop a light sweat after about 10 minutes of activity
3.) The Talk-Sing Method - you can carry on a conversation but cannot sing.

So there you there. Now you know how to see the signs of whether you are at the minimum level required to gain the health benefits from fitness. Now...take it up a notch :)

Happy health!
