Children and adolescents (6-17) should do at least 60 minutes (1 hour) or more of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity daily.

New research indicates that 1 hour of moderate exercise per week can help prevent atrial fibrillation (AFib). While a small amount of exercise reduced AFib risk, study participants who exercised ...
Health guidelines suggest that at least 150 minutes a week of aerobic exercise at moderate intensity is key to achieving meaningful weight loss of about 2 to 3kg.
Arrhythmia affects millions of people. [4] In Europe and North America, as of 2014, atrial fibrillation affects about 2% to 3% of the population. [9] Atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter resulted in 112,000 deaths in 2013, up from 29,000 in 1990. [10]
The percentage of people with AF increases with age with 0.1% under 50 years old, 4% between 60 and 70 years old, and 14% over 80 years old being affected. [4] A-fib and atrial flutter resulted in 193,300 deaths in 2015, up from 29,000 in 1990. [30] [31] The first known report of an irregular pulse was by Jean-Baptiste de Sénac in 1749. [3]
