Although pedometers are widely used to measure physical activity by counting the number of steps a person takes, they canât measure exercise intensity. In the lab, exercise intensity is commonly determined by measuring the amount of oxygen taken in by the body during exercise, known as oxygen uptake.
Vigorous-intensity exercise may be too much for someone who has been inactive, so obese individuals should start with 150 weekly minutes of moderate-intensity exercise. This will help slow or stop weight gain, but to lose weight, obese people will need to get more exercise. The ACSM recommends that obese individuals gradually work up to 250 minutes of weekly moderate-intensity exercise to increase weight loss. This can take any form: for instance, five 50-minute workouts per week or seven 37-minute workouts a week. Resistance Training Obese individuals should follow the same guidelines as other healthy individuals for resistance training, working out all major muscle groups twice weekly.
