According to youth guidelines, how many days per week should youth be active?

• A. 5-7 days per week
• B. 2-3 days per week
• C. 4-5 days per week
• D. 1-2 days per week

Answer: (A)

Youth guidelines emphasize being active most days of the week. Daily activity helps meet the recommended amount—about 60 minutes per day—and builds habits that support cardiovascular health, growth, and overall fitness. So, being active five to seven days per week aligns with this guidance and is the best choice. The other options fall short of the needed frequency to maximize health benefits and habit formation.
