Before You Start Exercising
This app can be used to monitor your exercise.
While moderate physical activity, such as brisk

start an exercise program, particularly if you have
any of the following conditions:
Heart disease;
•
Asthma or lung disease;
•
Diabetes, or liver or kidney disease;
•
Arthritis.
•
You should also check with your doctor if you have

When in Doubt — Check It Out
If you are unsure of your health status, have several
health problems, or are pregnant, you should speak
with your doctor before starting a new exercise
program. Working with your doctor ahead of time is
a good way to plan an exercise program that is right
and safe for you. Consider it the first step on your
path to physical fitness.
