Activity breakdown
Moderate intensity activity causes a slight, but noticeable increase in breathing and heart rate. You should be able to maintain a conversation. Some examples of moderate intensity activity include:
- Swimming
- Cycling
- Horse riding
- Rowing
- Dancing
- Active gardening (e.g. mowing, raking and digging)
10 minutes of moderate intensity activity = 1,000 steps
High intensity activity makes you “huff and puff” and is where talking full sentences between breaths is difficult. Some examples of high intensity activity include:
- Circuit training
- Aerobics
- Brisk rowing
- Fast cycling
- Jogging
- Competitive sport (e.g. squash, football and netball)
10 minutes of high intensity activity = 2,000 steps
