To help prevent heart disease, health organizations typically recommend getting at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity each week. This can be spread throughout the week, which translates to about 30 minutes a day on most days.

Therefore, the most common recommendation would be **30 minutes a day** of moderate exercise, such as brisk walking, for at least five days a week. Additionally, incorporating strength training exercises on two or more days per week is also beneficial.

Always consult with a healthcare provider before starting a new exercise program, especially if there are existing health concerns.
