Não é uma recomendação de fazer exercício somente andar 10 minutos mas apenas em corroboração ao que eu postei aqui outro dia, tornar sua vida mais ativa fora dos momentos de esporte pode trazer benefícios expressivos a saúde - Tem de se manter ativo o tempo todo - Saúde & Esportes - Bastter.com

Walking 10 Extra Minutes a Day Could Lead to a Longer Life for Many People
In this cohort study, we estimated that approximately 110?000 deaths per year could be prevented if US adults aged 40 to 85 years or older increased their MVPA by a small amount (ie, 10 minutes per day). Similar benefits were observed for men and women and for Mexican American, non-Hispanic Black, and non-Hispanic White adults. To our knowledge, this is the first study to estimate the number of preventable deaths through physical activity using accelerometer-based measurements among US adults while recognizing that increasing activity may not be possible for everyone. However, 1 week of monitoring may not reflect changes in activity over time, and the observational study design limits the direct determination of causality.

These findings support implementing evidence-based strategies to improve physical activity for adults and potentially reduce deaths in the US.
